Oh no! The wife of Hercules (Mickey Hargitay) has been murdered! Needless to say, the shirtless titan is ticked off, and seeks revenge. Sporting a groovy cape and cheerleader skirt, Herc sets out on his quest. Many feats of strength and daring-do take place, including the toting of a tree like a toothpick and senseless cattle slaughter. Queen Deianira (Jayne Mansfield!) falls instantly, madly in love w/ the big lug-nut, resulting in symphonic, romantical music. Much time passes before any real action. Hercules is wrongly accused of killing Deianira's fiance. More mini-skirted men appear. Hercules pontificates in his own defense, gleaming like the world's largest rotisserie chicken. Luckily, Hercules must battle the huge, Rose Bowl float-like monster of the title. He manages to subdue the creature, since it moves w/ the speed of an arthritic tortoise! Herc winds up in the clutches of the all-grrrl group known as The Amazons. At least they actually look good in their miniskirts, though their cockatoo headdresses remain a mystery! HERCULES VS. HYDRA is fairly typical for this sort of film. The flimsy story simply meanders until some action occurs. Mostly, it's an excuse to show off Hunkules and Ms. Mansfield's physical attributes. To that end, it's a roaring success! Expect an avalanche of cheeeze...
