Funnier sequel to the legendary Up Pompeii, 22 January 2001
10/10
Author: themarzipanfiend from Essex, England

This film does not have as funny a theme song, but most of the jokes are funnier. Howerd plays Lurkalot, a serf, who bears a striking likeness to Richard the Lionheart, and goes off to fight in the crusades. Eartha Kitt puts in a performance as Scheherazade, and there is a surprise about the reality of the Crusades.
