Romulus and Remus: The Story of Two Sons of a Wolf (1976)

slapstickhistorical parodylow-budget camp

Overview

Comedy

The history of Rome revisited by the group of Bagaglino (Franco, Montesano, Castellacci and Pingitore). Romulus kills Remus, but also manages to get rid of him. The sister continues to bother him in the ghost robes. When Romulus founded Rome and abducted the Sabine, dies, hell, he is received, needless to say, the petulantissimo Remo.

Best for:Friends: Drunk movie night when you need absurdist energy.·Background: Perfect chaos for folding laundry you keep ignoring.·Rewatch: Cult Italian comedy heads only — no casuals allowed.
Heads up:Language: Untranslated Italian puns; subtitles can't save you.

Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

The Bagaglino troupe dominated 1970s Italian variety television; this was their attempt at cinematic legitimacy. It failed.

Trivia

Gabriella Ferri, who plays the she-wolf, was a beloved Roman folk singer — imagine casting Dolly Parton as your wolf mom.
