GIANT OF METROPOLIS 1961 (MILL CREEK)

very weird mixture of sword and sandal and sci-fi.

Gordon Mitchell stars as Obro, a man who seeks to destroy an evil and cruel city of scientific wonders that keep people enslaved. It is the capital of Atlantis and he finds a woman to love after going thru many tortures at the hands of the rulers.

The costumes are unique and strange but always eye catching. Bella Cortez is stunning as Mecede, and Mitchell does his usual good job of helming the lead role.

This film should appeal to fans of both genres and it is a very quick paced 98 minutes. I liked the print from Mill Creek, but I always wish someone would release this in it's correct aspect ratio of 2.35:1
