SONS OF HERCULES: LAND OF DARKNESS 1962 (MILL CREEK)

Very odd entry in the series.

Dan Vadis stars as Argolese, one of the many sons Hercules apparently had. This time he saves the daughter of a king from a savage lion. After this is done he fights a huge dragon and kills it. With this feat he has been promised the hand of the daughter in marriage.

Argolese returns only to find the village burned and the people captured and taken as slaves by a violent people known as the "Demulus" who live in a mountain.

The rest of the film finds Argolese facing all kinds of peril until he finally defeats the evil kingdom. This is a weird film as it is split into part 1 and part 2 for some reason.

I was also surprised to see Ken Clark of "ATTACK OF THE GIANT LEECHES" fame in this movie. Not too bad, but very odd. The print from Mill Creek is ok but at the end it really gets shitty.

AKA HERCULES THE INVINCIBLE.
