Interesting facts

Zenabel is a 1969 film directed by Ruggero Deodato.

Production

Zenabel was directed by Ruggero Deodato to work again with producer and actor Mauro Parenti, who he had worked with previously on Phenomenal and the Treasure of Tutankhamen. The title role was given to Lucretia Love, Parenti's wife at the time, and Parenti also demanded an acting role for himself, and was given that of the bandit Gennaro. John Ireland played the role of the villain Baron Alfonso Imolde.

The film was shot in Bracciano in Rome and Tuscania. Deodato recalls during a scene in Tuscania's main square where Love's character is about to be burned alive, John Ireland was missing. Ireland was at the Hilton Hotel in Rome waiting for his check as the producer had not paid him yet. When Ireland arrived on set, he refused to give an act in a scene that was to give the signal to light Zenabel aflame.
