History Channel - Roman Vice (2005)
Experience the intrigue, scandal, excitement and chaos of the most dominant empire in the history of western civilization as History journeys back to the age of Caesar. For more than 500 years, Rome was the most powerful and advanced civilization the world had ever known, ruled by visionaries and tyrants whose accomplishments ranged from awe-inspiring to deplorable. Despite their seemingly civilized attitude toward life, there was a decidedly uncivilized end to the Roman Empire. In this feature-length special, recent archeological evidence provides an unprecedented look into this tumultuous period in Romes history from Roman funeral practices based on sacrifice and superstition to secret societies and mysterious cults to the grand palaces of Nero and Tiberius, the center of Romes excess wealth and decadence.. Featuring fascinating on-location footage and interviews with leading scholars from Princeton and Cambridge universities, ROMAN VICE brings the final days of the Roman Empire vividly to life.
