Wonderful character development!

A different way of telling a story

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Two muscle men: Gordon Mitchell is Pluto this time and Rod Flash is Vulcan! Monsters are terrorizing the people of the land and Vulcan must save them before Mt. Olympus falls to ruin.This one does have enough cheese to make the bread taste good. It's dumb enough to be entertaining, yet bad enough that most people will not watch.This one could have been a good movie if was done right. I'm not advocating a remake but if the film makers would have done this one properly it could have been almost as good as Clash of the Titans 1981. Sadly this one didn't have the money pumped into it to create a film as good as "Clash"... it had the potential though.4/10

The previous _peplum seen was also a GM one, but this one's better right from the beginning, and _unreluctantly so—a bit more adult yarn, aimed at teenagers as opposed to kids …. This one at least has a rousing, knockout score, signed by none other than Giombini. It also has slightly better production values, a sense of playfulness, etc.. It's a bit more colorful, sexier, violent enough, the protagonists are the gods Vulcan, played by Iloosh Khoshabe, Mars—played by Roger Browne, while Venus is the delightful Annie Gorassini; there are Vulcan and Mars on Earth, Mercury and Pluto in Olympus, Thracians, Sicilians, Neptune, various barbarians with raping propensities.Emimmo Salvi, Bella and Gordon are movie pals that have met more than once; someone seemed intent on promoting Bella, who has nice thighs, Gordon is credited as a genuine star, here they don't have any scene together.And yet these outmoded fairy tales with athletes also express my willingness to indulge in a free, unrestrained physical life.Sets, cast, broads, score, fights, effects, production values.A movie should never be chided for cheapness—but for stupidity, lack of ability, etc..Neither Gordon M., nor Cameron M., were original Mitchells; the first was a (Ch.) Pendleton, the second was a Mitzel. This one was almost 5 yrs older than the strongman.You might have already noticed that these newer, more playful reviews, are governed by overtly social, not aesthetic norms; that is, they transcribe more of a social awareness—chatting with my audience—than an uncompromisingly aesthetic one, as once. Now my writing is molded by social concerns.

The Roman Gods take center stage in this one with an old fashioned Olympic triangle taking place at the home of the Gods. Venus, the God of beauty and love is making a play for Vulcan and she's got him panting hot and heavy after her. That upsets Mars and Jupiter banishes all three to earth to sort it all out.Vulcan finds himself a nice earthly mortal who rivals Venus for her beauty, but he still doesn't like Mars. And Mars has got himself a Tower of Babel like scheme whereby he allies himself with some earthly despots to build a tower as tall as Olympus. Can Vulcan stop him in time from challenging Jupiter himself?The Greeks and Romans did not believe in one all seeing and all pervasive spirit like Deity. They liked their immortals with all the, dare I say it, human frailties built in. The idea for the film is an interesting one, but the roles would require some classically trained actors, not people who are used to peplum spectacles.

This is basically a poorly dubbed Italian B story about ancient Greek mythology with Roger Browne as Mars and Rod Flash (stage moniker for Iloosh Kooshabe) in the part of Vulcan. What makes this movie so funny is not the story but the costumes (like plastic skirts,and diapers sparkling silver boots that would make Liberache and Mario Bava envious). Put all of this together with an absolutely ludicrous fight scene, and you have Vulcan, Son of Jupiter. It's difficult to put this into words. You would have to see the movie to get what I'm saying. This is a very rare film and the only copy I could find was inside of the "50 movie warriors DVD pack" available at Amazon. I gave this movie a rating of 10 because it was so bad it was good! If your that type of person who enjoys terrible movies, this is the film for you!
