Lisztomania is a surrealist 1975 movie directed by Ken Russell. It tells a fictitious story showing Hungarian composer Franz Liszt (Roger Daltrey), who spends years like a rock star, until he decides to compose religious music for the Catholic church. He is ultimately commanded by the Pope (Ringo Starr) to excorcise evil German composer Richard Wagner (Paul Nicholas), who plans to make Germany conquer the world by means of his music.
The following weapons were used in the film Lisztomania:
Unidentified Rifle #1
As Franz Liszt mourns over the failure of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848/49 and his inability to contribute to it through his music, in one scene several dead Austrian soldiers are shown next to their rifles.
Colt 1860 Army
Richard Wagner (Paul Nicholas) enters into Liszt's mansion and shoots the guard with what appears to be a Colt 1860 Army revolver. He later points it towards Liszt as he enters his room.
Unidentified Rifle #2
The killed guard is later shown dropping his Unidentified Rifle #2
Unidentified Rifle #3
As three other guards enter Liszt's room and declare that they are just chasing a "dangerous communist" (referring to Wagner), one of the guards holds a Unidentified Rifle #3.
Unidentified Revolver #2
In the same scene, the middle guard holds an Unidentified Revolver #2.
Unidentified Rifle #4
The right of the guards holds an Unidentified Rifle #4. A shot few seconds later also shows him closing the door, where we get another look on his rifle.
Short Barreled Flintlock Pistol
Just as Liszt intends to leave for the Pope's mission, Olga Janina (Nell Campbell) threatens to shoot him with a short-barreled Flintlock Pistol. As Liszt is in fact leaving, Janina fires the pistol, but obviously misses.
Guitar Machine Gun
Richard Wagner presents a mixture between an electric guitar and a machine gun to his fellow "Wagner youth" children. Later, after Wagner has been killed by Liszt, a zombified mixture of Wagner and Adolf Hitler arises from the grave, holding the Guitar Machine Gun in his hands. The weapon is used to shoot fleeing Jews in the following scene, as well as Cosima's former husband Otto von Bülow (Andrew Reilly), who dares to step into Wagner-Hitler's way.
Flame Thrower Piano
Franz Liszt (Roger Daltrey) uses a flamethrower-equipped stage piano during the climax of the movie and ultimately kills Richard Wagner, who then is resurrected in the mentioned way.
Stielhandgranate
Cosima Wagner (Veronica Quilligan) and the Wagner youth carry German Stielhandgranate grenades. The grenades are used to demolish the Jewish buildings.
