Hercules

Hercules (1958) more movies like this

directed by Pietro Francisci
featuring Steve Reeves, Sylva Koscina, Fabrizio Mioni, Ivo Garrani, Arturo Dominici, Gianna Maria Canale

Heralding a decade of Italian-made sword-and-sandal films, Hercules -- as it's been known in the United States since its 1959 release -- draws most of its plot from the legend of Jason and the Golden Fleece. Hercules, the half-immortal son of Jupiter (or Zeus) rescues Iole, the daughter of Pelias, the king of Jolco, when the horses pulling her ...

Hercules Unchained

Hercules Unchained (1959) more movies like this

directed by Pietro Francisci
featuring Steve Reeves, Sylvia Lopez, Sylva Koscina, Gabriele Antonini

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 (Sylva Koscina), and the young ...

La Guerra di Troia

La Guerra di Troia (1961) more movies like this

directed by Giorgio Ferroni
featuring Steve Reeves

Steve Reeves gives the most dramatically demanding performance of his career (and a surprisingly good one) in The Trojan Horse. Essentially a retelling of the final year of the siege of Troy from the point of view of Aeneas (Reeves), the movie is filled with fascinating portrayals. Aeneas, taking the interpretation from the poet Virgil, is the ...

Jail Bait

Jail Bait (1954) more movies like this

directed by Edward D. Wood, Jr.
featuring Dolores Fuller, Lyle Talbot, Herbert Rawlinson, Steve Reeves, Clancy Malone

Jail Bait was the place where Edward D. Wood Jr.'s career as a director entered the mainstream. Having exposed the world of transvestism in Glen or Glenda, he now turned to less ambitious fare in an effort at commercial success. Loosely patterned after the television series Dragnet, Jail Bait tells the story of Don Gregor (Clancey Malone), the ...

The Giant of Marathon

The Giant of Marathon (1959) more movies like this

directed by Jacques Tourneur
featuring Steve Reeves, Mylène Demongeot, Daniela Rocca, Ivo Garrani, Philippe Hersent

Rather than telling a dramatized version of the exploits of the Greek runner Phidippides (or Philippides, as used here), this standard Italian costume drama has the great athlete almost single-handedly defeating the Persians. Set in 490 B.C. when the Persian armies were ready to finish conquering Greece and head into Europe, Phidippides (Steve ...

The White Warrior

The White Warrior (1959) more movies like this

directed by Riccardo Freda
featuring Giorgia Moll, Steve Reeves, Renato Baldini, Nikola Popovic

Although this uninspired Italian adventure film is loosely based on Leo Tolstoy's tale about a 19th-century clash between Czarist Russia and several ethnic groups in the Caucasus, Tolstoy's original talent is buried. Ponderous and quickly put together, the story stars Steve Reeves as the muscular hero known as the "White Warrior" who leads the ...

featuring Steve Reeves, Jacqueline Sassard, Marie Versini, Alessandra Panaro, Andrea Bosic

In this swashbuckling tale of action and adventure, a dashing, muscle-bound sultan's son struggles to single-handedly stave off Queen Victoria's army of invaders and thereby save his father from kidnappers. Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Morgan il Pirata

Morgan il Pirata (1960) more movies like this

directed by André De Toth, Primo Zeglio
featuring Steve Reeves, Valerie Lagrange, Lydia Alfonsi, Chelo Alonso, Armand Mestral

Steve Reeves trades sandals and togas for the frilly, functional outfits common to 17th-century buccaneers in Morgan the Pirate. As the real-life Sir Henry Morgan, Reeves is sold into slavery and forced to work on a Panama plantation. He is purchased by haughty Valerie Lagrange; they fall in love, and as punishment Reeves is condemned to toil in ...

Gli Ultimi Giorni di Pompeii (1959) more movies like this

directed by Mario Bonnard
featuring Steve Reeves, Christine Kaufmann, Barbar Carroll, Fernando Rey, Anne Marie Baumann, Mimmo Palmara

This was ironically the last film made by director Mario Bonnard, and it follows the pattern of the classic Italian costume dramas about macho or mythic heroes, in this case, a certain Glaucus (Steve Reeves, the glorious Greco-Roman past could not occur without him). Taking the cue from its larger-than-life hero, the story, set in 79 A.D., bounds ...
