She a beautiful temptress, who has had numerous lovers and will marry Claudius, even though he is much older. She doesn't want Claudius. She wants power. Now she will be Valeria Messalina, Empress of Rome. The most powerful woman an in the world!!!! Reviews: "In this opulent spectacle the corruption that was at the heart of the Roman Empire is embodied by the infamous empress Messalina, portrayed by Belinda Lee with surprising range from a vulnerable Vestal to the power mad, sexually insatiable, callous mudereress she supposedly became. If anything, the film underplays her infamy, though she is certainly evil enough. In a memorable scene, a young would-be assassin (Giuliano Gemma) is lured into her bed only to be beheaded before fully awake the following morning. Messalina triumphantly parades into the palace quarters of the desperate plotters bearing the gift of his severed head. Spiros Focas is fine as the naif and devoted centurion who fell in love with her before the rot set in. As mounting evidence of her treachery and licentiousness builds, the enamored lover struggles to break free of her amorous toils and to eventually oppose her reign. Although present and participating in her last violent moments, he at last admits the necessity of her death." - written by "ccmiller1492" on IMDb.com Also Known As (AKA): (original title) Messalina Venere imperatrice Brazil Messalina - Vênus Imperial East Germany Messalina - Imperial Venus(TV Title) Finland Messalina France Messaline Greece Μεσσαλίνα(short title) Greece Μεσσαλίνα η αυτοκράτειρα(Video Title) India Messalina(Hindi) Italy Messalina Venere imperatrice Mexico Los amores de Messalina Portugal Os amores de Messalina Singapore Messalina(English) United States Messalina West Germany Messalina ···················································································· ✘ Website: https://www.artflix.info/ FOLLOW US! ✘ Twitter - https://twitter.com/Artflixtv SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNcUc5v0Kt5afE_jcbbZUBQ/join MORE MOVIES! ► Film Noir: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8zZFQfLjXuXBFcLF_oP35pQX098fUhQ1 ► Classic Movies: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8zZFQfLjXuUU37GjccbV249yYIHDYrjS ► All Playlists: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNcUc5v0Kt5afE_jcbbZUBQ/playlists ···················································································· COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
