Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Alan Steel is Hercules this time out. Ignoring the fact that he's an ancient Grecian, Herk disguises himself as a Spaniard (could this film have borne a different title originally-with perhaps a hero other than Hercules?) The man of muscle foils a plot to kidnap the governor's daughter. Piero Lulli costars in this odd combination of sword-and-sandal and swashbuckler. Filmed in 1960 (apparently), Hercules and the Black Pirate was released in the US in 1963.
