content

The kingdom of Axur, which lies near the Nile, is tyrannized by a pair of usurperers who pay homage to the cult of fire devils. Maciste comes to the aid of the prince, whose life is in danger, and is captured by Queen Tenefi. He suffers from amnesia until a magic potion from the magician Yalis heals him, so that he can bring down the idols of the fire devils with muscle power. The evil rulers are hit by falling rubble, the people cheer and laugh.

Reviews

"Manufactured according to a conventional template."

“The ancient muscleman Maciste not only defeats the fire devils with their peculiar delight in burned virgins, but also the Queen of Memphis. And that. Although his intelligence does not seem to be in proportion to his strength, because he falls into all possible traps. The whole thing is very colorful, made very antique and not very exciting. "
