Trivia: Finding anything on this movie was really a challenge. Note how the non-cast names were Americanized. The names Culvert, Arthur, etc. are probably pseudonyms too, but no other names were located.

Born Gordon M. Werschkul in 1927, American muscleman GORDON SCOTT took advantage for Europe's demand for movie he-men after Steve Reeves' success. Scott first was the 11th actor to play Tarzan; he beat his manly chest in six movies beginning with Tarzan's Hidden Jungle (1955). Italy called, so he co-starred with Reeves in 1961's Duel of the Titans. Then Scott played Maciste in 1961's Samson and the Seven Miracles of the World and 1964's Goliath Against the Vampires. (For semi-clarification on Maciste, see the footnote for 605-COLOSSUS AND THE HEADHUNTERS). Here's some other of Scott's European imports: 1962-Zorro and the Three Musketeers; 1962-A Queen for Caesar; 1963-The Lion of St. Mark; 1963-Arrow of the Avenger; 1964-Buffalo Bill; 1965-Hercules and the Princess of Troy; 1966-The Tramplers; Top Secret; and 1967's Nest of Spies a.k.a. DANGER!! DEATH RAY!
