HERCULES UNCHAINED (1959) 12807

Original Warner Brothers Half Sheet Poster (22x28). Signed by Steve Reeves. Originally folded. Fine Plus.

Original Warner Brothers Half Sheet Poster (22x28) for the Pietro Francisci sword and sandal epic, HERCULES UNCHAINED (1959) starring Steve Reeves, Sylva Koscina, Sylvia Lopez, and Gabriele Antonini. This is the second and last portrayal of Hercules by Reeves; although, he would continue to play other epic heroes after his success in this and the first Hercules film. All of the ÒsonsÓ of Hercules films have the same plot: the hero falls under the sway of a beautiful, powerful, but evil woman. However, our hero eventually comes to his senses and saves the day. Other outstanding performances in the film include former heavy weight champion Primo Camera who towers over Reeves as the giant Anteo and the beautiful Sylvia Lopez who plays the beguiling Queen of Lidia. Tragically, Lopez dies of leukemia shortly after the film was released. The poster is signed by Steve Reeves. Originally folded, the poster has been stored rolled for some years and is in fine plus condition. MovieArt Austin guarantees this poster to be an original half-sheet from this film. MovieArt Austin will sell NO reproductions.
