In days of old there lived a son of Hercules, who dwelt near Mount Olympus, and as a result was endowed with godlike powers. A city of civilized people face an army of rampaging barbarians. The people at once go into battle and pray for deliverance from the horror and destruction weighing so heavily over them. Just as all seems lost, our hero arrives to save the day and the beautiful Princess Daphne from certain death. What follows is a tangled web of mystery and duplicity as the son of Hercules falls in love with the princess but finds himself distracted by the earthly form of Venus, “Goddess Of Love.”

Very well executed

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Lord, what a stinkeroo. I haven't seen it through at one sitting yet, because I keep dropping into a confused doze. It was obviously redone as a Son of Hercules film to add to that series when it was shopped to TV in the 60s, because when Son talks to Daddy, Herc is now on Olympus tossing thunderbolts. One great line, tho---When Son tells Dad he wants to forfeit his immortality for love of a mortal, Dad says fine---"You will be a mortal FOREVER!" MST3K should've grabbed this turkey.
