Post by: Taffin on February 07, 2022, 03:22:33 PM: It's not a peplum, but I can think of nobody more likely to have seen this film I just learned about this past week - Navajo Joe with Burt Reynolds - is it worth a watch Funk? Or anyone else of course

I'm tempted to watch it just for the crazy wig and cheekbones! ;D

Oh man - thanks for the link Funk - it never even crossed my mind to try YouTube :P I would've tried to find a torrent or something - you've saved me a lot of wasted effort

And very nostalgic to see an actual puppet dragon rather than CGI - I'm gonna try to watch the whole thing this weekend along with that Burt Reynolds flick

Thanks funk :)

Do you have a favorite, or favorites, of these peplum movies? Is there one you think is better than the all the others? I know movie buffs who claim that Reg Park's Hercules in the Haunted World is the best of all the Hercules movies.

probably hercules unchained, most of these are just so bad that they're good. like this one seen above.

I looked at this version briefly and it appears to be beautifully restored! I have a few versions myself but none have the picture quality of this one. I have for years hoped that Criterion Collection would do a restoration on the Reeves "Hercules" films but that appears beneath them. Odd that Godzilla films get that treatment and not something as popular as "Hercules" and "Hercules Unchained". Thanks funk!

Post by: Tom on February 26, 2022, 07:48:01 AM: Allegedly, in that Ferrigno "hercules" movie with sybill danning, there was suppose to be a very dirty soft porn like sex scene between his character and hers, that was in the script, but before filming started it was "nixed" because they wanted to make a more "G" "PG" rated film for all audiences?....

that was the case in the second conan movie too. Trivia / Conan the Destroyer

Trivia

YMMV

Create New

- Create New -
B-Team Sequel: John Milius and Oliver Stone didn't return for the sequel, resulting in a different tone and feel.
Creator Backlash: Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn't happy with the decision to make a Lighter and Softer Conan film (although the opening action scene does feature a fair amount of blood shed despite a PG rating).
Deleted Scene: A sex scene between Conan and Queen Taramis was filmed, but ultimately left out of the final cut (likely so the film could have a PG rating).
Dyeing for Your Art: Arnold Schwarzenegger, with the help of Will Hatty, put on an extra 5 kilograms (10 pounds), at Richard Fleischer's request, to play Conan in this film.
Enforced Method Acting: When Bombatta and Zula are fighting, Grace Jones actually bit Wilt Chamberlain's ear and that is real blood running down his neck. The shocked look on Wilt's face is genuine as she had never done stunts before as this is her first movie role.
Executive Meddling: Because Universal Pictures and producer Dino De Laurentiis thought it would have been even more successful if it had been less violent, they wanted to tone down the violence in the movie. It was also recut in order to secure a PG rating. Roy Thomas and Gerry Conway, who wrote the original script, were ticked off at how Universal had watered down their script, they went to Marvel and produced the graphic novel Conan: The Horn of Azoth, which was their script in comic-book form (ironically, the movie had had a Comic-Book Adaptation shortly after its release), but with a few name changes to avoid legal difficulty.
Franchise Killer: This is the second and last Conan film with Arnold Schwarzenegger thus far. After this, the series went to the back burner until 1997, got an attempted reboot in 2011, and a third installment with Arnold that renders Conan the Destroyer non-canon has been stuck in Development Hell.
Genre-Killer: This movie, along with Red Sonja, is widely credited with killing the Sword and Sorcery genre in media for quite some time.
Hostility on the Set: Wilt Chamberlain and Grace Jones didn't get along on set. Chamberlain had to keep asking Jones to turn down her boom box.
No Stunt Double: Wilt Chamberlain and Grace Jones did 90 percent of their own stunts.
Prop Recycling: From the first movie:
The upper part of Togra's helmet was one of the shoulders of Thulsa Doom's armor.
Ferdy Mayne's crown is actually the Aquilonian crown worn by Arnold Schwarzenegger before the closing credits.
Uncredited Role: André the Giant as Dagoth. There are set photos of him and Wilt Chamberlain together making Arnold look tiny.
You Look Familiar: Sven-Ole Thorsen, who played Togra in this movie, played Thorgrim in the first film.
