Soft core camp
23 March 2012
Arabian Nights was inspired by the book of the same title. Pier Paolo Pasolini, the controversial Italian director, handles the adaptation of the story of Nur E Din who falls in love with a slave girl, Zumurrud. He is responsible for her Abduction and so, he begins a journey to find his soul mate.

Meanwhile, Zumurrud, dressed as a man has escaped her captors and become a king while her potential life mate wanders the vast land for a reunion of epic proportions. Others share their romantic adventures which include demons, mysterious women and plenty of lust.

Pasolini uses the original story and dresses it up as a soft core costume drama with extensive nudity with some funny moments. It's passable silly camp for those so inclined.
