Carry On Cleo
“The Funniest Film Since 54 B.C.”
Comedy
Two Brits—inventor Hengist Pod, and Horse, a brave and cunning fighter—are captured and enslaved by invading Romans and taken to Rome. One of their first encounters in Rome leaves Hengist being mistaken for a fighter, and gets drafted into the Royal Guard to protect Cleopatra.
VIBE
A delightfully silly and anachronistic romp through Ancient Rome. Expect broad jokes, cheeky innuendo, and a general sense of good-natured, British absurdity. It's pure, unadulterated, campy fun.
