The story

What Is The Conquest of Mycenae About?

The premise of The Conquest of Mycenae without spoilers.

Glaucus, the Tiryns prince played by Gordon Scott, adopts the name Hercules to infiltrate Mycenae’s Moloch cult, which extracts tribute of hostages from realms. He defeats champions, wins favor of Queen Demetra (Rosalba Neri), and confronts her son—a dog‑head‑masked youth raised as embodiment of Moloch who leads sacrifices in an underground pit.
