GOLIATH AND THE BARBARIANS (IL TERRORE DEI BARBARI) - 1959 Dir. Carlo Campogalliani
Buffed bodybuilder Steve Reeves, in his first sword-and-sandal epic since Hercules, stars as Emiliano, who seeks revenge when his village is destroyed and his father killed by marauding barbarians. Taking the name "Goliath," Emiliano straps on an animal mask and fur-covered loincloth for his raids on the enemy camps, as well as romancing the chieftain's daughter (Chelo Alonso).
More brutal than most similar films, this exciting adventure from veteran director Carlo Campogalliani also features Livia Lorenzon and a brief appearances by King Kong star Bruce Cabot.

GOLIATH AND THE VAMPIRES (MACISTE CONTRO IL VAMPIRO) - 1961 Dir. Sergio Corbucci & Giacomo Gentilomo
Former big-screen Tarzan Gordon Scott appears in one of many sword-and-sandal epics featuring muscle-bound, mini-skirted hero Maciste (aka Goliath, cinematic kin to Steve Reeves's Hercules), sworn to protect the helpless with his strength and swordsmanship. In this horror-tinged outing, the mythical hunk comes to the rescue when an immortal, shape-shifting vampire turns an entire island village into legions of shuffling zombie slaves. Our none-too-bright hero discovers nearly too late that the undead foe has taken on his appearance, which understandably complicates matters.
