Hercules Unchained (1959)

A French Italian sword and sandal action adventure film directed by Pietro Francisci, starring Steve Reeves.
Hercules is captured and his memory erased while conflict over the leadership of Thebes takes place.
This one was produced a little better than the other sword and sandal films. The same stuff happened like bar bending, holding doorways and political intrigue. Hercules' wife looked very good and the film didn't have that "dirty" look that so typifies this genre. For doing a few things slightly better, I will raise the rating to poor, rather than bad.
