By the Gods!

Thor (Joe Robinson) is avoiding some guards in THOR AND THE AMAZON WOMEN (1963)

This screen grab is from the HD copy of this sorta odd movie. Initialy it was supposed to be a Tarzan movie but the threat of a lawsuit from the estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs forced producers to change it into a PEPLUM movie. There is a very direct connection between PEPLUM movies and Tarzan / Jungle Adventure movies. This one is really in the middle of it all. This was one of the first movies released on Blu-ray which seems odd. You'd think other bigger or more famous titles would have proceeded it.

  1. Yes, it is odd that this was an early Blu-ray release along with the much better Anthar. Too bad there isn't an English language option on either of them.

  2. The Spanish Bluray of Anthar has English subs.
