This movie begins with a monster that is terrorizing the surrounding countryside which is divided between two different tribes. One side is led by "Hercules" (Reg Park) while the other has a regent named "Prince Zerah" (Furio Meniconi) temporarily in charge until "Princess Amiko" (Mireille Granelli) is ready to assume the throne. However, Prince Zerah doesn't want to surrender his power and being jealous of Hercules he decides to blame him for the monster's destruction. He also attempts to kill Hercules on more than one occasion with no success. Meanwhile, the monster's reign of terror continues. Now rather than reveal any more of the plot I will just say that this movie was a bit underwhelming for a couple of reasons. First, although he has played the part several times previously, it didn't seem like Reg Park was as fully committed or utilized for this particular effort. Additionally, the reasoning for the monster's presence wasn't demonstrated very well either. Even so it wasn't a terribly bad movie with both Maria Teresa Orsini (as "Katya") and the previously mentioned Mireille Granelli providing some beauty to an otherwise drab affair. Slightly below average.
