HERCULES AND THE CAPTIVE WOMEN 1961 (MILL CREEK)

One of the most fun sword and sandal films.

Yes I reviewed this a long time ago, and I figured it was time to give it another watch.

Reg Park is Hercules in this great little adventure that finds him in the lost city of Atlantis which is ruled over by an evil queen.

The queen is played by Fay Spain and she is intent on ruling the entire world with the help of her superhuman army. Hercules doesn't like this idea one bit and sets out to stop her.

There is the mandatory annoying midget as is usual in most of these kinds of films, but Herc does manage to save a beautiful maiden from a weird looking lizard monster before discovering that the young woman is the Queen's daughter. This, as I said is a fun film, at least in my opinion.

There is some humor which just doesn't fly, but overall this is a good sword and sandal film that I believe most fans will like.
