Ursus in the Valley of the LionsRating: 2.9/5 (with 11 vote)
Ursus in the Valley of the Lions (Italian: Ursus nella valle dei leoni, also known as Valley of the Lions) is a 1962 Italian sword-and-sandal film directed by Carlo Ludovico Bragaglia. Although it was the fourth film in the Italian "Ursus" series, it was the first to provide Ursus with an origin story, explaining how he was raised by a lioness. Ed Fury once again appears as Ursus and Alberto Lupo plays the villainous Ajak. When the film was distributed in the US, the title was shortened to simply Valley of the Lions. This film was also distributed as Son of Atlas in the Valley of the Lions. ()

About Ursus in the Valley of the Lions

Bodybuilder Ed Fury stars as the legendary Ursus in this above-average sword-and-sandal adventure from veteran director Carlo Campogalliani. The plot concerns Ursus' attempts to rescue his kidnapped fiancee, aided by a pretty blind slave girl. Now an evil queen, Ursus' former love throws him into a gladiatorial arena with a bull, which manages to smack the slave girl in the head and restore her eyesight before Ursus defeats it and his enemies. The bullfight is particularly well-staged, and this exciting spectacle may be the highlight of Fury's erratic screen career. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi.
