The queen and child prince of a peaceful city escape as it is taken over by a violent man. They are captured and work as slaves in a gold mine. The local strongman, Maciste, who must save them, is also captured and has his mind erased by an anklet.
And yet another sword and sandal flick. This one was pretty standard issue. It had bar bending and lifting of heavy objects. Maciste also had his arms tied to separate teams of horses in an effort to pull him apart. The only thing that set it apart was that there were some African tribesmen in one part. Maciste also does a better job of bar bending than Hercules by actually removing the bars. I found a word for this type of film: Peplum. It basically means a sword and sandal flick. I'm rating this poor because it's the same crap as the other peplums.
