Upon his return from battle in the previous film, the great warrior Hercules learns that his lover, Daianara, has lost her senses. Acording of the oracle Medea, Dianara's only hope is the Stone of Forgetfulness which lies deep in the realm of Hades. Hercules, with two companions, Theseus and Telemachus, embarks on a dangerous quest for the stone, while he is unaware that Dianara's guardian, King Lico, is the one responsible for her condition and plots to have the girl for himself as his bride upon her revival.

💪🌈
Silly peplum with gothic horror sprinkling and some otherworldly lighting and neat cheapy production design that is unmistakably Bava. Hercules and Theseus should have ended up together.

Hercules in the Haunted World
Basically a turn off your brain movie. It is an adventure in a world designed by Bava, with some of the most stunning uses of color and smoke in his career. Dramatically it falls the flattest to me, but I don’t really mind - all that really matters is the way it looks and the fact that it’s insanely fun.
