You may be thinking of Hercules in the Haunted World , that is where Hercules (Maciste) and his buddy have to absail over a lava pool and there are also creatures made out of a rock. It stars Christopher Lee and is another corker of a peplum . I am so pleased that we have the opportunity to see these uncut in their original versions. Thank you – I love peplum !!

Man, I’m so GLAD to see the REAL Version of this film, because when I was very small kid wayyyyyyyyyyyy back, we got THIS FILM as part of AVCO/EMBASSY’s Syndicated “The Sons Of Hercules” film package….
EDITED, and terribly DUBBED, ‘natch.
To finally see the real deal is worth the life-long wait. Thanks (and, I’m downloading this NOW!!).

What a wonderful surprise! One of the greatest peplum with pretty damn special effects. According to Tim Lucas, medusa and the dragon were constructed by 3-oscar winner Carlo Rambaldi and all matte painting and matte shots (including the valley of medusa)were made by legendary italian horrro filmmaker and special effects designer Mario Bava.
Many thankts and more rare peplum (GIANT OF MARATHON for example)please!

Very strong entry in Sword and Sorcery genre, it’s good to have it here. I’m pleased to see other users comments, proving I’m not the only one with the soft spot for classic peplum!
