Pam_Grier and Margaret_Markov reteamed a year after Black_Mama,_White_Mama for this similarly crowd-pleasing exploitation effort. They play Roman slaves who eventually rebel against their male oppressors. Mixing elements from the Italian peplum and the Filipino women's prison movies, The_Arena also adds some po-faced feminist theory while still managing to exploit its scantily-clad stars. Italian film regulars Lucretia_Love and Rosalba_Neri look strangely out of place in a movie filmed in their own country, but fans of drive-in movies should be pleased. Robert Firsching, Rovi
