HERCULES (LE FATICHE DI ERCOLE) - 1958

Heralding a decade of Italian-made sword-and-sandal films, Hercules draws most of its plot from the legend of Jason and the Golden Fleece. Hercules (Steve Reeves), the half-immortal son of Jupiter (or Zeus) rescues Iole, the daughter of Pelias, the king of Jolco, when the horses pulling her chariot run wild.

Returning her to the court, he is engaged by Pelias to train his vain, arrogant son in the use of arms, that he may one day become a warrior king. Pelias' hold on power is very uncertain, owing to the way he became king — his brother, the previous monarch, was murdered by persons unknown in the palace — and he looks to leave a dynasty. The prince is later killed through his own foolishness, however, and the blame falls on Hercules…

HERCULES UNCHAINED (ERCOLE E LA REGINA DI LIDIA) - 1959

Steve Reeves' second (and last) film portrayal of Hercules is, in certain ways, better than his first. The plot this time is drawn from the legends surrounding the royal house of Thebes, which are most familiar to audiences through the Theban plays of Sophocles.

The movie opens with Hercules, his new bride Iole (ylva Koscina), and the young Ulysses (Gabriel Antonini) traveling to Thebes following the end of the quest for the Golden Fleece (depicted in the previous movie, Hercules). Their journey is interrupted when Hercules must do battle with the giant Anteus (Primo Carnera), whose strength seems to exceed his own until he realizes that Anteus is the son of the earth goddess and can't be defeated on land...
