Dino De Laurentiis
Flush with cash, Band ended up purchasing Castello di Giove, a 12th-century castle located in Giove, Italy. The intention was to use the castle as a European base of operations and a filming location. During this time period Band also purchased Dino de Laurentiis Cinematografica, the studio founded by Dino De Laurentiis in 1946, for an alleged $20,000,000.
