The Arena
Directed by Steve CarverTwo thousand years ago, the people of Rome are so blasée, so used to violence, that entertaining them becomes a political problem. Someone suggests, after a hectic girl fight in a kitchen between a Nubian and a Viking slave, as a joke, that they should fight in the arena, instead of male gladiators. The idea is approved, though - and a female "Spartacus" theme follows.

The Arena Ratings & Reviews
- Mitchell Thompson13h agoAll ways love Pam Greier ❤️
- Mister ArnJuly 26, 2025“The Arena” is a gladiator exploitation film where enslaved women are forced to fight each other for the crowd’s amusement. The story weaves together themes of oppression, camaraderie, and rebellion, with flashes of feminist defiance. It’s unmistakably a product of its time, sexist, violent, and tailored for the male viewer, but beneath the surface, there’s a thread of women seizing control in a world built to break them.
- fernando jordaanMarch 24, 2025A good Pam Grier movie with a touch of skin. A movie that doesn't get old and keeps you captivated.
