Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
After having a surprise hit playing Dracula in Love at First Bite, George Hamilton seized the moment and spoofed another movie hero: Zorro. In fact, he plays two characters: the heroic Don Diego, who fights Spanish tyranny in Old California in his secret identity as Zorro, and Diego's long-absent brother, Bunny Wigglesworth, a man totally comfortable with his sexual identity and unafraid of accessorizing the Zorro outfit by rendering it in purple. When the swashbuckler is injured, he turns his sword over to the swishbuckler, who is just as good a swordsman, though a few shades less fiery. Some of the gay humor is heavy-handed, but Hamilton easily handles the comedy demands of the dual roles, and has strong support from Ron Leibman as the chief bad guy. --Marshall Fine

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Spoof Zorro
George Hanilton had already spoofed Dracula and the vampire genre in the film Love at First Bite, this time he took his satirical aim at Zorro. He pokes a big finger of 1940's Tyrone Power The Mark of Zorro

Hamilton could have played this Zorro straight and would have made this work. However, in a comedy twist, when his Dom Diego character hurts his foot in an Zorro related accident, he enlisted his long lost brother Ramone (now called Bunny Wigglesworth)(Also played by Hamilton) ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Tongue in cheek gay humor to keep you laughing.
This movie was made way before the whole "PC" epidemic, when you could laugh at anything because it was just funny. George Hamilton plays both Zorro and his gay brother. He bounces back forth between a womanizer and an effeminant with hilarious results. The supporting cast are amazing and this movie is still funny 20 something years later, as proved by the laughs of my teenage children. Pick it up and enjoy a comedy the whole family can watch.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The pipples are not happy!
If you like comedies and spoofs then this one shouldn't be left out. While it is outdated. it's still a classic spoof. In the time of Love At First Bite (1979) and the king of all spoofs; Airplane ('80) there lies Zorro the Gay Blade which stars George Hamilton playing a duel role.


George Hamilton plays a bumbling Zorro who is trying to stop the evil Spanish governor Esteban (Ron Leibman) from squashing the peasants. All this happens as he is wooing the beautiful Charlotte Taylor ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Slapstick Zorro Comedy
This movie is still funny even after many, many, many years. George Hamilton does a good job in a dual role. He even handles a Spanish accent well considering he's not Hispanic. This is a good movie for light-hearted slapstic humor. If you like goofy comedy you will like Zorro The Gay Blade.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great villain makes a great comedy!
This hilarious movie is all about Ron Leibman as the over-the-top Alcalde, Esteban and his thwarted attempts to catch Zorro.

What makes a great adventure movie is a great villain and apparently the same goes for adventure-comedy films.

George Hamilton is funny as both Don Diego and Bunny, but without his great interplay with Ron Leibman the movie would be completely lost.

Esteban's repeated assertion that he is "From you! I am from the people!" is hilariously ... Read More
