This enormously successful sequel to “The Robe” continues the story of Demetrius (Victor Mature), the Greek slave who, after the death of his master, is sentenced to train as a gladiator in the Roman arena. There, his newfound Christian faith is put to the test when he has to contend not only with the swordsman and wild beasts of the arena, but also the evil and sensuous Messalina (Susan Hayward) and the mad Emperor Caligula (Jay Robinson). Crammed with astonishing action and fight sequences, this heroic epic is not to be missed!

Fairly entertaining non-epic sequel to "The Robe". And it does have Susan Hayward.
