Hercules in New York
See Him Topple Two Ton Newspaper Rolls! See Him Toss Tough Men Like Toothpicks!
Directed by Arthur Allan Seidelman
Produced by RAF Industries
A campy, low-budget fish-out-of-water comedy that mines absurdist humor from a Greek god loose in 1970s Manhattan.
Hercules is sent from Mount Olympus to modern-day Manhattan, where he takes up professional wrestling before getting mixed up with a gang of mobsters.
