Blu-rays of Hercules and Hercules Unchained.
Newest acquisitions for the #peplum library: French Blu-rays of Hercules and Hercules Unchained from Artus Films. Shockings, the only blu-ray releases of these films! (How can a film like Hercules not have a 4K/HD release by now?!?)

DVD copy of I Dieci gladiatori. It's from Desert Island Classics. The cover is simply the movie poster with a dark green border around it. Very low quality.
Newest movie to add to the #SwordAndSandal library: a very bootleggy/grey market DVD of The Ten Gladiators.
