What happens
Goliath and the Barbarians (Italian: Il terrore dei barbari, lit. 'Terror of the Barbarians') is a 1959 Italian peplum film loosely based on events of the Lombard invasion of Italy in AD 568. As with many Italian peplums of the time, the English dubbed version renamed some of the characters (for example, "Emiliano" became "Goliath"). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
