By the Gods!

Ulysses (Georges Marchal) is put to a series of tests by crazed King Lagos (Gianni Santuccio) in ULYSSES AGAINST HERCULES

This is one of my favourite scenes in the entire PEPLUM genre. The best role Marchal ever had in his extensive list of roles of the same genre, and Santuccio steals the show in his brief but unforgettable as the insane rule of a bizarre kingdom. The face in the background looks like the floating face in ZARDOZ.
