Movie Info

The 12 labors of Hercules were not the objective of this film starring Lou Ferrigno as the semi-divine son of Zeus and the mortal Alcmene. Hercules must rescue Princess Cassiopea from her kidnappers, fight off grotesque laser-breathing monsters and in one case, jettison a giant bear up into space where it becomes Ursa Major, the Big Dipper or "Great Bear" constellation. Off-color (many scenes are in dim, bluish stage sets) and low-budget, this incarnation of Hercules may find unconverted viewers

Shockingly incompetent on every conceivable level.

Egad, and it's poorly dubbed too

one of the few male 'jiggle' movies in recent memory, it's all silly to the nth degree and dares to utilize special effects tricks that redefine the word 'tacky.'

Like a really bad Schwarzenegger movie ... starring Lou Ferrigno.

It was...um....ok.....I guess. I felt that a LOT was missing! The creatures were ok but for a movie made in the 80s, the effects could have been at least a little better than that. At least they had few sexy cast members in it but the story I did not like at all. I mean really, I honestly only watched it because there
