Vultures, Condors and Hawks, oh my...

Who knew vultures, hawks and condors were such a menace to big string men but in the PEPLUM universe, big birds with big claws

HERCULES & THE CAPTIVE WOMEN

Reg Park tries to fend off Proteus, who has changed into the form of a vulture. It was pretty difficult to grab a satisfactory screenshot from this scene as the vulture kept bobbing all about.

MACISTE IN HELL

Kirk Morris as Maciste battles with a feisty hawk. 

THE PRODIGAL

Edmund Purdom doesn't want to end up as lunch for a condor and become one of the skeletons in the pit. An unintentionally funny scene certainly when the action is sped up.

THE COSSACKS

Pierre Brice and friend are tied and are the target of hungry vultures in this over-the-top scene from this rarely seen film. 

CONAN THE BARBARIAN

Conan IS lunch for vultures but he'll soon take a bite of the situation.
