I found this originally on sale at a library in Connecticut and had intended to leave it behind when I moved but couldn't bear to part with it. I'm very excited to own it on DVD at last!
If you love ridiculous swashbucklers with unlikely plots, bizarre costumes, collapsing furniture and lots of overacting, this is a must-own. The fight scenes are particularly over the top. Best watched late at night with a group of like-minded friends.

THE SON OF MONTE CRISTO begins as a typical 40s swashbuckler and stays that way from start to finish.
