ALEXANDER THE GREAT 1968 (MILL CREEK)

Very well done TV movie from the late 60's.

William Shatner is Alexander and his performance isn't as bad as most of the reviews have said. I think the people that write some of the reviews I have seen are more MST3K people who live only to tear everything apart.

John Cassavetes is Karonos who plots to kill Alexander and take over his empire along with Attalos, played by Simon Oakland. This is a brisk hour long film that does move along. it was a pilot that was never picked up.

The rest of the cast includes Joseph Cotton, Adam West, Cliff Osmond and Ziva Rodann. Not a bad film by any means. I suggest you check it out for a good way to kill an hour.
