Poll question: 1960s Hercules Movies

What's the best part about these old flicks?

[teach1st]

1. I voted for the bad dubbing..

..because that's what I most remember. But, being a hetrosexual male, I must say that the skimpy costumes on some of the female cast members in those movies might very well have been my first introduction to arrousal.

2. When some of 'em were lambasted on "Mystery Science Theater 3000."

Particularly when they did one of the later Hercules films, after Steve Reeves had quit the series.

JOEL: I dunno, guys. Allen Steel (?) just doesn't cut it as Hercules.

CROW: Yeah, he's no Steve Reeves.

GYPSY: Steve was a lot shinier!

By the way, the above exchange is a paraphrase. :)

6. "Have I mentioned I'm immense and immortal?"

I love the moment in any given Hercules film when he realizes that the heavens are arrayed against him and cries out something like: "I've been tricked by the gods!" in some dramatic way.
