Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe roar of the dragon guarding the Golden Fleece is actually Godzilla'a roar from Godzilla (1954) (U.S. title: "Godzilla, King of the Monsters"). Joseph E. Levine had acquired and released that film three years earlier.
- GoofsWhen Hercules crushes the lion with his bare arms, the reverse angle shows the lion with a happy contented look on its face, obviously enjoying being snuggled.
- Quotes
Antea, Queen of the Amazons: My heart has reached the crossroads of destiny.
- Alternate versionsHas been available in the U.S. in three different versions.
- (98 minutes) This has the poorest dubbing job. The Italian "fine" appears at the end.
- (103 minutes) This version restores some footage and contains a superior dubbing job. The Italian "fine" as replaced with "The End."
- (104 minutes) This version contains yet a third dubbing job. The main title was replaced with an animated title showing a starfield and the constellation Hercules. The bulk of the original credit sequence was moved to the end of the film. During this movie's first release in the United States in 1959, the material issued by Embassy and Warner Brothers (who handled the physical distribution) listed the running time as 107 minutes. This is still listed as the running time by most sources. The 107 minute version is believed to be the original uncut and uncensored Italian version which probably showed more flesh than was permitted on U.S. screens at the time.

Featured review
Not sure if anyone will read because of out-of-style Film
I had to leave some comment because this is the first movie I remember going to see.
After the movie I remember acting out the labors of Hercules in front of the movie-house with my friends after the show. This movie seemed to put an end to all cowboys and my other heroes Roy Rogers and Trigger. I was only 7 years old but it seems like yesterday.
This movie was very impressive since after 42 years I still admire Steve Reeves. I understand he is still living a very healthy life even now.
