No octagonal steel cage. No rules. No surrender. It's Hercules vs. Samson in a brawl to outdo them all, hurling spears, heaving chunks of pillars and, in the clinches, bending thick iron rods around each other. Hercules had set out to find Samson and deliver him to the Philistines in exchange for the imprisoned Ulysses and other Ithacans. Samson, of course, fights rather than submits. But in the course of the titanic Herc-Sam clash, something happens. The two rivals develop a mutual respect and decide to join forces against their common foes: the Philistines. From an enduring filmmaking tradition that unites monsters (Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man), desperados (Return of the Badmen) and superheroes (The Avengers) comes a not-to-be-overlooked film that brings together Hercules, Samson and Ulysses. Strap up your sandals' calf-high leather laces and get ready to rumble. Review: The greatest Bronze Age Heroes mix it up - Herc and Uly set out to find and kill a local sea monster, Poseidon (who must be in league with Jehovah) decides to send the heroic crew to Judea where they find the Israelites being abused and subjugated by the Philistines. Their hero, the great Biblical Judge, Samson, is nowhere to be found. He is public enemy #1 to the oppressors, probably for burning their crops and murdering thousands of their soldiers and civilians (as recorded in the Bible.) Samson and Hercules have a lot in common. 1 - A direct connection to the Divine, 2 - are considered to be the mightiest of the ancient heroes, 3 - are endowed with mind boggling super human strength, and 4 - as noble as they are, they have psychological issues including uncontrollable bouts of rage, which often gets them into deep, deep doo doo. The Philistine King hires Hercules to find Samson and capture the marauding strongman. After Herc and Sam brawl it out, they decide to combine their strength against the Philistines. Delilah is included in this story too. Here she tries, unsuccessfully, to seduce the happily married Herc, settling instead on the single Sam. Herc gives Sam a warning about the temptress, but the look on Samson's face makes it obvious he won't heed the advice of the Son of Zeus. Where's Uly in all this? Well, this is long before the Trojan War, so the poor hero is still in his awkward, wussy Teen stage. He spends most of the movie being a captive, though he does get to show off his legendary ingenuity and archery talents. By the way, the Fall of the Temple of Dagon takes place in this film too. This time it's a joint effort by both Sam and Herc. The story takes place before the Iliad and the Odyssey, after the Twelve Labors and the Quest for the Golden Fleece, and before Samson's victory over the Philistines using only the Jawbone of an Ass, and his later tragic betrayal by the oh so sweet Delilah. Well, other than the fact that the "sea monster" was simply a giant elephant seal, the Philistines wear German war helmets and KKK like hooded capes, and the utter absurdity of combining Greek myth and Biblical Scripture (which I love by the way), this film stands as one of the better of the Italian muscleman movies. It's completely ridiculous, over the top, and enjoyable from start to finish, and fans of the Old Testament and the Greek Myths will have plenty to enjoy. Review: Excellent Euro Pepla Actioner - It is fitting that Director Pietro Francisci who gave us the original 'HERCULES' aka 'LE FATICHE DI ERCOLE' -1958 and its superb sequel 'HERCULES UNCHAINED' aka 'ERCOLE E LA REGINA DI LIDIA'- 1959 both starring Steve Reeves would return to the genre six years later to deliver one of the last and best of its type 'HERCULES, SAMSON, & ULYSSES' aka 'ERCOLE SFIDA SANSONE'- 1964. By this time the European sword and sandal pepla were in decline tag teaming every conceivable muscleman against hokey villains and card board monsters. Here we have a good script by Francisci making the film a prequel to the biblical Samson and Delilah story and intertwining it with characters of Greek mythology. The production values are excellent and the acting above average for a film of this type even making the English dubbing palatable. Kirk Morris who was no stranger to the genre having played in Director Ricardo Freda's underrated 'MACISTE IN HELL' aka 'MACISTE AL'INFERNO' -1963 (beware the wretched television print titled 'THE WITCH'S CURSE' which totally distorts the storyline) and many others. Liana Orfei makes a fetching Delilah and Samson and Ulysses are aptly portrayed by Richard Lloyd and Enzo Cerusico never burying the film in hokey shenanigans and comic relief which was so prolific in these final forays. Hercules's wife Iole and young son appear in cameo making this a sequel to the first 1950's films. With a rousing score by Angelo Francisco Lavagnino known for his melancholic music for Director Eugene Lourie's monster epic 'GORGO'- 1961 and crisp cinematography by Silvano Ippoliti , this film comes highly recommended for fans of these actioners. Warner Archive releases it in a flawless 1.85 DVD-R with a US trailer its only extra. Lets hope they continue to dive into their coffers and release more of these gems to collectors. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Enzo Cerusico, Kirk Morris, Liana Orfei, Richard Lloyd | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 124 Reviews | | Format | NTSC | | Genre | Action-Fantasy | | Language | English | | Runtime | 1 hour and 26 minutes | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Enzo Cerusico, Kirk Morris, Liana Orfei, Richard Lloyd - **Format:** NTSC - **Genre:** Action-Fantasy - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 26 minutes ## Images ![Hercules, Samson And Ulysses - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715EhVDFrOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The greatest Bronze Age Heroes mix it up *by M***. on June 15, 2017* Herc and Uly set out to find and kill a local sea monster, Poseidon (who must be in league with Jehovah) decides to send the heroic crew to Judea where they find the Israelites being abused and subjugated by the Philistines.
