Herkules und die Königin der Amazonen (1959)
Herkules hat einen jungen Mann, Odysseus, bei sich, mit dem zusammen er versucht, die Nachfolge des Ödipus unter seinen zerstrittenen Söhnen zu regeln. Nachdem er den Trank des Vergessens gekostet hat, verfällt Herkules der Amazonenkönigin Omphale. Diese lässt ihre Männer nach der Liebesnacht einbalsamieren, wovor ihn die Argonauten unter Führung von Odysseus gerade noch bewahren können. Mittlerweile hat jedoch Eteokles, einer der Ödipus-Söhne, den Streit mit seinem Bruder Polyneikes zum Krieg erweitert und Herkules' Frau Jole als Geisel genommen. Herkules gelingt es, durch einen unterirdischen Fluss in die Stadt zu gelangen, wo die Brüder sich zum Duell eingefunden haben. Er kann auch die Truppen von General Amphiraos besiegen, die von Polyneikos auf die Stadt angesetzt wurden, und verhilft so wieder zur Herstellung der Ordnung.
