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.
