  The Sons of Hercules - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sons of Hercules was a syndicated television show that aired in the United States of America in the 1960s.
Four of the "Sons of Hercules" films were originally Maciste movies in Italy, two of them were originally Ursus movies, two of them were originally Hercules films (strangely enough), and the other six were just isolated gladiator or mythological hero movies that the American distributors didn't feel deserved a full-blown theatrical release in the USA.

 Hercules Vs. The Sons Of The Sun
Hercules was the only one that survived, which makes sense since he was a demi-god and he quickly forgets his anguish over his dead buddies once Prince Maytha shows up and becomes his new best friend.
Hercules tells Maytha to stay put and that he and some of the men will go get this woman and bring her back.
Hercules says that he'd like to introduce the Incas to a little thing he likes to call the wheel and so it happened that the wheel was introduced to the new world.

Among this year's festival dog-and-pony shows, Sons of Hercules promises to be one of the campiest.
"Sons" is generic here; though there was a series of movies (and later, truncated TV shows) based on Hercules' alleged progeny, this combination clip show and live commentary covers a wider range.
In the infamous The Loves of Hercules, with a fetching Mickey Hargitay and two Jayne Mansfields, poor Jayne is "attacked" by a talking tree monster that struggles to get its branches around her vast tits.

Hercules helps some Incan rebels defeat their tyrannical usurper king.
You're grateful for the big fight scene at the end of the movie, but by then it's too late to make up for the fact that the first eighty minutes emphasized costume design and dance choreography over fight choreography.
Mark Forest plays Hercules; his great talent was in making it look like his every act of strength was really, really hard.

Sons of Hercules in the Land of Darkness
Given the English-language dubbing of the actors, it's hard to tell whether or not the leading characters were really Hercules' offspring, or if they were rechristened to conform with TV's Sons of Hercules package of the early 1960s.
You'll forget all about who the characters are supposed to be as you watch Vadis and company take on dragons and giants on behalf of the Forces of Good.

It was followed, first, by HERCULES UNCHAINED (1959) (the Italian title is Hercules and the Queen of Lydia but the film skips over the more controversial aspects of Hercules' relationship with Omphale---including the whole dressing up as a woman part).
Then came all those great "Sons of Hercules" movies with that wonderful theme song that was used in each film:
Oh, for the HERCULES I give it four stars (I would give it five but the dragon that guards the golden fleece is really dreadful even for 1958.

Lavish historical spectacles were a staple of Italian cinema since silent days, but it took American bodybuilder Steve Reeves and the international box office sensation Hercules to put the muscleman at the center of the show.
MGM film archivist John Kirk presents video clips from over 70 of these rarely screened gems, along with videotaped interviews with stars Richard Harrison, Gordon Mitchell and Mickey Hargitay, and cameos from body-building legends Steve Reeves, Ed Fury and Reg Park.
Along with the campy fun, Sons Of Hercules delivers a serious assessment of an almost totally neglected film genre.

Not actually a film, but rather a lecture with copious amounts of film clips, Sons of Hercules has been presented in festivals around the world to examine one of cinema's forgotten genres, the sword and sandal adventure, which reached giddy heights in the Hercules films of the early 1960s.
Made in Italy, these films broke new ground in their use of muscle men as heroes that could appeal to women and gay men equally.
And more importantly, they show a key transition in public taste from the post-war gentleman heroes to macho bodybuilders like Rambo and Van Damme.
