synopsis
The Spanish Thousand and One Nights brings a new slant to an old story. Several Arabian Nights legends are blended together into a single coherent continuity. Evidently certain that this sort of stuff was too hokey to take seriously, the producers handle the material with tongue firmly in cheek. Jeff Cooper plays the ingenuous hero Oman, while the villainy is in the capable hands of Raf Vallone. And, yes, there are plenty of undulating harem girls and veiled princesses; foremost among these is the dazzling Luciana Paluzzi.
