I might have enjoyed Conquest Of Mycenae a bit more if we actually had Hercules defeat a real monster from the bowels of the Earth. But the monster here is all too human.
Which is the problem I found with this film. During the entire film right up to when Moloch takes off his mask we are taken and teased with a bag of supernatural tricks in the story. It was quite a let down to see this was a Peplum version of Phantom Of The Opera.
Gordon Scott isn't even the real Hercules, but he's a strong dude and a prince named Glaucus who is the heir of one of many vassal states of Mycenaie whose tribute is young virgins. Scott lets folks call him Hercules because of his feats of strength which are impressive.
Nothing special in this Peplum picture.
