Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of anyone with a bit of wanderlust. A good one for when you want to be swept off somewhere else.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
Never drags, at 1 hr 28 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Made in 1974: an older pace and style.

In medieval France, traveler Pygar tells he-man Karzan (Maciste in the French version) of his recent journey to a place called Antigua, and of its entire community of Amazons promising undreamed of sexual satisfaction to any man who comes upon them. More importantly, Pygar tells of a fortune in gold. Karzan/Maciste, is persuaded to undertake the journey in search of riches, unaware that Pygar is in collusion with the Amazon Queen to actually deliver Maciste as a slave stud to help rejuvenate the race.
