Goliath and the Dragon (Italian: La vendetta di Ercole, lit. 'Revenge of Hercules') is a 1960 sword-and-sandal film[3] directed by Vittorio Cottafavi and starring Mark Forest and Broderick Crawford.
The name of the main character was changed from Hercules to Emilius (known in the film as Goliath) for release in North America by American International Pictures to sell it as a sequel to their earlier Goliath and the Barbarians (1959). American International Pictures had announced plans to create a sequel to Goliath and the Barbarians called Goliath and the Dragon based on a script by Lou Rusoff for star Debra Paget, but the project fell through, so they bought the rights to an already-made Italian film called Revenge of Hercules and retitled it Goliath and the Dragon.[4] American International Pictures also added a Wah Ming Chang stop-motion animation sequence inserting a dragon sub-plot into the story.[1] The dragon sequence is only in the Americanized English-dubbed print, not in the original Italian version.[5]
