Rosalba Neri, Alan Steel, Sergio Ciani, Elisa Mainardi

Alan Steel is Hercules this time out. Ignoring the fact that he's an ancient Grecian, Herk disguises himself as a Spaniard (could this film have borne a different title originally-with perhaps a hero ... read more read more...other than Hercules?) The man of muscle foils a plot to kidnap the governor's daughter. Piero Lulli costars in this odd combination of sword-and-sandal and swashbuckler. Filmed in 1960 (apparently), Hercules and the Black Pirate was released in the US in 1963. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    Hercules and the Black Pirates aka Sansone contro il corsaro nero
    Made in 1964 one of the last Italian Made Hercules films by Romana Film of Italy. In this one it opens with Hercules looking more like a Musketeer then the usual strong man running around in roman lands. Hercules... read more is on a ship fighting the Black Pirate and his men right from the start. Hercules is played by Alan Steel who is listed in this movie on IMDB.com as Samson for this movie but he is called Hercules through out. English Dubbing leaves much to be desired. The beautiful lady who Hercules has eyes for is none other then Rosalba Neri , who stared in over 97 Movies in her Career and was a cherished beauty in all of Europe. Anyway Hercules is in love with Rosita and when the king finds out he will have no part of his daughter being attached to a fisherman, so Hercules sheds his musketeer outfit and gets into a blue jean shirt and heads home, the amount of times that Hercules changes cloths in this movie is to many to count. The kings youngest daughter gets kidnapped and its all blamed on Hercules, but its the evil doing of the black pirate. Of course Hercules saves the day. As far as Hercules movies go, its pretty good, the color and sound are excellent in my copy. Have to give it 4 stars.
