Overview

Upon his return from battle in the previous film, the great warrior Hercules learns that his lover, Daianara, has lost her senses. Acording of the oracle Medea, Dianara's only hope is the Stone of Forgetfulness which lies deep in the realm of Hades. Hercules, with two companions, Theseus and Telemachus, embarks on a dangerous quest for the stone, while he is unaware that Dianara's guardian, King Lico, is the one responsible for her condition and plots to have the girl for himself as his bride upon her revival.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A pulpy descent into the underworld that blends mythological adventure with gothic horror atmosphere, part muscleman spectacle, part eerie underworld nightmare. Earnest fun with a genuinely creepy edge.
