Hercules then sets out to thwart the world domination plans of Antonea, Queen of Atlantis.

Hercules And The Captive Women: Tony's Comments
In "Hercules And The Captive Women", bodybuilder Reg Park (Mr. Universe 1951, 1958 & 1965) flexes his biceps and puts on the sandals & toga for this, his first outing as the mighty Hercules. In some parts of the world the film goes under a variety of titles including, "Hercules Conquers Atlantis", "Hercules and the Conquest of Atlantis" and "Hercules and the Haunted Women". "Hercules And The Captive Women" is an above average entry in the Hercules genre. It has the usual monsters; a dash of romance, campy action sequences and above all Reg Park looks the part. Look out for Sergio Leone favorite Gian Maria Volonté (A Fistful of Dollars & For A Few Dollars More) in a small role as the King of Sparta. "Hercules And The Captive Women" is pure fun, 90 minutes of non-stop Herculean action.

Hercules The Avenger(1962)
Reg Park excels as the muscular hero in this "spaghetti spectacle" that finds Hercules in the underworld, trying to save his son's soul from Gaea, the wicked Earth goddess. Meanwhile, Gaea's son travels to Earth and masquerades as a villainous Herc. Sharp-eyed viewers will spot stock footage from "Hercules and the Captive Women" and "Hercules in the Haunted World." With Gia Sandri.

Hercules And The Captive Women(1963)
