While strongman Goliath is busy battling a fire-spewing three-headed doggie and a giant bat-monster in the "Cave of Horrors," his brother, lllus, has made the mistake of failing in love with the bride-to-be of evil King Eurystheus (played by Broderick Crawford, who walks around barking orders like a Hollywood gangster). Responsible for the death of Goliath's parents, Eurystheus scores bonus points by capturing Illus and sentencing him to be crushed beneath the massive feet of a prisoner-squashing elephant. Worse, a centaur - half-man, half-horse - kidnaps Goliath's wife and delivers her to the temperamental tyrant. Naturally, Goliath goes ballistic, flexes his muscles, and clobbers all the king's men. But when his wife is shackled in the Horror Cave, Goliath must come face to face with Eurystheus' pet dragon...

A French-Italian co-production starring American beefcake Mark Forest as Goliath (a,k,a. "Emilius the Mighty"), GOLIATH AND THE DRAGON comes complete with "A Cast of Thousands," goofy monsters, elephant wrestling, temple wrecking, a Goliathquake, a score by Les Baxter, and a comical midget. Best of all, GOLIATH AND THE DRAGON has been digitally transferred from the 35mm U.S. negative and presented in widescreen "Colorscope!"

Mark Forest stars. Then, Kirk Morris plays the heroic Heralces (that's Greek for Hercules), out to find a Nomad princess kidnapped by masked gold raiders. The journey leads to the lost city of Atlantis, where Morris encounters such oddities as zombies, female guards who will die if they "taste the love of a man," and more...even long pants!
