Could be a good time to Maciste if the producers adjust some ridiculous scenes along the picture,the screenplay is terrible to start and the plot is lack of creativity apart all this,the greatest sets ever done weren't enough this time,also my copy from VHS was dubbed to english version became worst the whole thing,l'm a great fan of those semi-gods of greek mitology,have a lot of good movies of Hercules,Sansom,Goliah and Maciste,they are amazing characters who deserves a appropiate good productions to make those magnificents movies,further Chelo alonso overcame all this mess and share us your glorious beauty!!!
