In the 13th Century, hordes of sadistic Mongol warriors descend upon China, enslaving the people and plotting to defile and assassinate the virgin princess (Yoko Tani). The forces of destiny lead Samson (Gordon Scott), named for the biblical hero whose strength he possesses, to rouse the people and join forces with an army of rebels determined to drive the Mongols from their nation's majestic mountainscapes.
Featuring breathtaking action, astounding stunts of great daring and a spectacular earthquake climax, Samson and The Seven Miracles of the World is a thrilling sword and sandal adventure with an unusual Asian locale.
Samson fights an army of Tartars to save a Chinese princess, then burrows out of a rocky tomb in this classic sword-and-sandal spectacle.

Better-than-expected sword & sandal flick in exotic setting
Movie Lover: the Jax from California -- September, 8, 2004
What is "Samson" doing in 13th century China?
Who knows.
Are there really 7 miracles?
I didn't count.
Some hokey parts?
Of course.
But someone worked very hard to throw in an inventive element or cool visual fairly often.
The faux-Oriental music adds atmosphere as well.
I was surprised to find myself drawn in by the furious pace and some scenes that go right for the gut.
Stoic former Tarzan actor Gordon Scott gives it his best shot as the legendary strongman.
Tall, striking Helene Chanel transcends her supporting role--with dark hair she looks like Lucy Lawless!
Other actors are OK, but our Mongol villain just doesn't ham it up enough.
All in all, I was entertained and I'll watch it again soon.
The picture quality is not so great; grainy, with lots of color fading/flickering and microsecond frame jumps.
However, Alpha dug up the original trailer for this film and that's pretty fun to watch, too.
Beware: at about 54 minutes in is the hairiest man in cinematic history.
Shirtless.
