3.0 out of 5 stars Jayne Mansfield murdered by a tree and other delights!, February 19, 2001

This review is from: Loves of Hercules/Hercules and the Tyrants of Babylon [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"The Loves of Hercules," aka "Hercules vs. the Hydra," features the husband-and-wife team of Mickey Hargitay and Jayne Mansfield--the former running around, confused, as Hercules, and the latter playing two parts via two hair colors. As a thoroughly unconvincing Amazon queen, Jayne is murdered by a killer tree, while her good-gal counterpart is saved from a three-headed monster puppet of vast size but limited movement. Highly bad, but great fun. In "Tyrants of Babylon," Peter Lupus' mission, should he decide to accept it, is to battles lies, deception, small armies, and sunstroke before literally bringing down the walls of Babylon with a huge underground wheel designed, naturally, for just that purpose. Lupus (aka Rock Stevens) emotes beautifully, though his voice belongs to someone else, as do those of the other actors. The dubbing is better than usual for a sword and sandal saga, but the direction is sluggish and the plot nothing but a series of double-crosses and power-plays. The obvious source, sans sandals, for "Dynasty."

4.0 out of 5 stars Beauty and Muscles i.e. Mansfield and Hargitay, August 5, 2002

This review is from: Loves of Hercules/Hercules and the Tyrants of Babylon [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The beautiful Jayne Mansfield costars with her former Mr. Universe hubby Micky Hargitay.No mind blowing plots here, although Mansfield does play a dual role, one evil one good. This movie also features a cheap Hydra that Herc has to fight off.I wonder why Hargitay didn't have a beard like the other Herc stars?Tyrants of Bablyon was originally released as Goliath vs The Tyrants of Bablyon and stars Rock Stevens (real name Peter Lupus of Mission Impossible fame)Again the plot is simple and has Goliath throwing a lot of Italians around in this flick and tear down the walls of Bablyon.If you like these sword and sandal spaghetti movies, you'll like this one as well.
