Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2006)

I watched this film from 1968 to 1970 from age 9 in Durham essoldo picture house it came back for years because it was so popular. We would go in in the afternoon, watch the support film and Zulu stay in and watch them again, going home in the evening. Even now if I watch the DVD it sends shivers down my spine, it is a stirring film with some great characters. One thing I heard recently on Gladiator the Ridley Scott film, was a chant from the Gauls in the opening battle it sounded just like one of the Zulu chants when the Zulus were counting the guns during the battle. Can anyone confirm this? As Ridley Scott comes from the North East of England, I wonder if he, like me was a fan of Zulu? I would love to know.
