Viewing Notes
Venturing into another Italian swords & sandals flick on Instant Watch, Son of Samson (1960) doesn’t play quite as well as the Hercules films from the same period but again I admire the set pieces and the scale. And at least the women are very attractive! Plus the poster art for these films is terrific!
