Plot: The rise and fall of the notorious Roman Emperor Caligula, showing the violent methods that he employs to gain the throne, and the subsequent insanity of his reign - he gives his horse political office and humiliates and executes anyone who even slightly displeases him. He also sleeps with his sister, organises elaborate orgies and embarks on a fruitless invasion of England before meeting an appropriate end. There are various versions of the film, ranging from the heavily- truncated 90-minute version to the legendary 160-minute hardcore version which leaves nothing to the imagination (though the hardcore scenes were inserted later and do not involve the main cast members).

Quotes:

Caligula: Let them hate me, so long as they fear me.

Caligula: I have existed from the morning of the world and I shall exist until the last star falls from the night. Although I have taken the form of Gaius Caligula, I am all men as I am no man and therefore I am a God.

[at an orgy]::Caligula: Longinus, you're not having any fun! Enjoy yourself! What is your preference?::Longinus: Everything and nothing Caesar.

Caligula: I hear you have a taste for little boys. Is that not so?::Chaerea: No Caesar, big boys.

Chaerea: Give him enough rope...::Longinus: ...and perhaps, he'll hang us all.

Tiberius: Do you prefer nymphs to satyrs?::Caligula: I like both, Lord.::Tiberius: One needs both, yes, to keep healthy.

Tiberius: Do you think this boy has been drinking?::Caligula: I think he has, Caesar.::Tiberius: So do I. Macro? Bring him more wine!

Caligula: Caesar begged you.

[after a man is decapitated]::Caligula: If only all of Rome had just one neck.

Tiberius: Serve the state, Caligula, though the people in it are wicked beasts.::Caligula: But they love you, lord.::Tiberius: Oh, no... they FEAR me... and that is much better.

He sends him to New York City with the purpose of the trip to acquaint him with the pitfalls and wicked ways of the big city, especially for young millionaires. The uncle, who believes there is safety in numbers, also assigns, and pays well, three Follies girls,Jacqueline, Maxine and Pauline, to oversee the lad's tutoring. In the interest of ensuring the boy is well-tutored, Alma McGRegor and Cleo Carewe volunteer their services. Nothing could possibly go wrong with that many experienced tutors on the job.

Plot: Geo the seer, on request of her own son, Sepeos, predicts the death of Kerysta the dancer from Tanagra, after she has danced three times. Messalina, the Roman empress, knew of Geo's powers to forsee the things to come, and went to consult her in her tent - and meets Sepeos just as he had heard his mother's prediction. As Sepeos had fallen in love when he first saw Kerysta, Messalina falls for Geo now, and immediately asks for affection in return, but he refuses her. Messalina is rejected, and dejected. She will use her arsenal of seductive poses and, caresses, then pleadings and promises, and finally imprisonment, punishment, and torture to achieve her end.
