Virtually all of Hammer's '60's-'70's output could classify as gaudy. Their films were always shot in eye-scorching hues.

I agree, but that's what made them distinctive from almost any other horror film of that time. As soon as you saw that gaudiness, you knew you were watching a Hammer horror.

There were plenty of old historical costumers that might fit this category. The Vikings,Black Shield of Falworth, Sword of Lancelot, Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court with Bing Crosby and even Danny Kaye's The Court Jester. Some of the Sinbad movies might fit the bill too.

Is there a difference between a gaudy movie and a lavish movie?
