Il terrore dei barbari (AKA: Goliath and the Barbarians) is a 1959 peplum loosely based on events of the Lombard invasion of Italy in AD 568. As with many Italian peplums of the time, the English translation renames some of the characters (for example: "Emiliano" becomes "Goliath" in the English version).

One man, Emiliano, son of leader of tribe is away at the time of attack, and he swears revenge and wages a one-man war against the evil tribes.

Cast
US Release
American International Pictures released the film in the US with a new score by Les Baxter. AIP invested $20,000 in the movie to help the producers complete it and were rewarded when it became a big hit. The film earned $1.6 million in North America during its initial release where it was double billed with Sign of the Gladiator
AIP announced plans to make a follow up called Goliath and the Dragon from a script by Lou Rusoff with Debra Paget but this fell through and they ended up buying an Italian film called The Vengeance of Hercules and simply renaming it Goliath and the Dragon.
DVD Releases
This was released on a limited edition DVD by Wild East Productions in 2007 in a double feature with Goliath and the Vampires.
