Son of Sinbad (1955)

Directed by Ted Tetzlaff
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

This Sinbad is no sailor, but a lady-killer, and his sidekick Omar Kyam, played by Vincent Price, writes the poetry he uses to woo harem girls. The movie takes every opportunity to display beautiful women in as little clothing as 1955 Hollywood would allow. There are numerous "exotic" dance sequences. Ali Baba and the forty thieves are now the forty women, who live in secret caves in the desert and help Sinbad defeat the Mongols.
