00:00:00Long before the heavens had taken form, there existed an angel-like figure, a goddess, whom
00:00:19the ancients called Empyrea.
00:00:22From within her came the seed of fire and light that was to issue forth all stars, planets
00:00:29and moons.
00:01:29From this great beginning, the planet Earth was formed.
00:01:58Together with its satellite, the moon.
00:02:02Then one day, the gods, the prime movers of the universe, gave life to an earthly creature,
00:02:10the mightiest, the most heroic of all men, Hercules.
00:07:10Many honors were bestowed upon Hercules for his deeds on Earth.
00:07:41And he took his rightful place on Olympus, from where Zeus, king of the gods, ruled peacefully,
00:07:47thanks to his seven mighty thunderbolts.
00:07:54But one day, foolish and envious gods stole the seven thunderbolts and unleashed the diabolical
00:08:03forces of evil and chaos.
00:08:33Be quiet, maiden.
00:08:37You disturb the gods.
00:08:41The altar is set.
00:08:45The appointed hour has come.
00:08:53The fires await her silken flanks.
00:09:01To the altar!
00:09:03To the altar!
00:09:07Bind her in her chains.
00:09:11No!
00:09:13No!
00:09:15I've done nothing!
00:09:17Quiet!
00:09:19Be still!
00:09:27I'm dying!
00:09:30Cry not.
00:09:32It is an honor to be chosen.
00:09:34No!
00:09:36The moon is high.
00:09:38We are ready, my dear Antaeus.
00:09:40The city of Thragesta offers you another one of its daughters.
00:09:42No!
00:09:44Don't give into the fire, monster!
00:09:46You are privileged.
00:09:48This is your destiny.
00:09:50You must die so that your people will live on.
00:09:52No!
00:09:54Don't let him take me!
00:09:56He is evil!
00:09:58No!
00:10:08No!
00:10:10No!
00:10:12No!
00:10:14No!
00:10:16No!

00:10:27No!
00:10:28No!
00:10:29No!
00:10:30No!
00:10:31No!
00:10:32No!
00:10:33No!
00:10:34No!
00:10:35No!
00:10:36No!
00:10:37No!
00:10:38No!
00:10:39No!
00:10:40No!
00:10:41No!
00:10:42No!

00:10:57No!
00:10:58No!
00:10:59No!
00:11:00No!
00:11:01screaming
00:11:16Glasia
00:11:17What is it?
00:11:19Antaeus... the Fire Monster
00:11:23Ilia...
00:11:24Ilia. Ilia's dead.
00:11:27I was there.
00:11:29The ghoulish fiend swallowed her in his flames,
00:11:32consumed her slowly.
00:11:34Oh, it was horrible.
00:11:37Who gives him his power?
00:11:42He'll swallow us all, Eurene.
00:11:46One by one.
00:11:51Why do our gods permit it?
00:11:54Has our clan been chosen for this horror?
00:11:58No, don't blame the gods.
00:12:01You must have faith.
00:12:03Please, be strong.
00:12:05I want to have faith, Eurene.
00:12:07It's difficult, though.
00:12:09I know.
00:12:11I knew you went there. I wanted to stop you.
00:12:13You forget you're our chosen sister.
00:12:16Our fate is in your destiny.
00:12:19Has it revealed itself?
00:12:21No, I think it's too early, my sister.
00:12:23I have only the power to predict, not to prevent.
00:12:28It is said
00:12:30that you shall be the next victim.
00:12:34Ilia had come to me in a dream.
00:12:36I went to her, but it was too late.
00:12:39And now...
00:12:41I'd be willing to die
00:12:43to save our people.
00:12:47But what's the good? It'll only be in vain.
00:12:51He'll consume us,
00:12:53like he did Ilia.
00:12:55Antaeus is evil.
00:12:57He must be destroyed.
00:13:00There is a way.
00:13:02What are you saying?
00:13:04That there's a way to destroy him.
00:13:06How?
00:13:07With cunning.
00:13:09I'll go to the little people.
00:13:11Yes, they use cunning to survive.
00:13:13And I'm sure they'll give me the right answer.
00:13:15Have faith, Glossia. I'll be back by morning.
00:13:20I'll be back.
00:13:50Little people.
00:13:52Friends of Zeus.
00:13:54Oh, please.
00:13:56Listen to my prayer.
00:14:06We know why you are here, Urania.
00:14:09Terrible things are happening in the universe.
00:14:11Even the gods have been led astray.
00:14:14Four of them have been destroyed.
00:14:17The gods have been led astray.
00:14:19Four of them rebelled against Zeus
00:14:21and stole his seven mighty thunderbolts.
00:14:24The secret.
00:14:26The key to all his powers.
00:14:28It is your fate that calls.
00:14:30And your coming here was already planned.
00:14:33The architects of the universe have lost control of the heavenly bodies.
00:14:37Our moon is coming towards us.
00:14:39Your destiny is interwoven in the celestial upheaval.
00:14:43And it will lead you to the one man who can help you.
00:14:47Who is he? Where can I find him?
00:14:49He's the strongest man who's ever walked the earth.
00:14:52A man called Hercules.
00:14:54Hercules is still...
00:14:56Yes, the invincible son of Zeus.
00:14:59It was he who divided the continents.
00:15:02As it was he who had formed the constellations
00:15:05and who defeated King Minos and his vast empire.
00:15:09Yes, Hercules, the invincible.
00:15:12And yet nothing's been heard from him for ages.
00:15:15They say that Zeus sent him up to the heavens
00:15:18and placed him among the brightest stars.
00:15:20Destiny says it is you who must seek him.
00:15:24Go with Glaucia to the Forbidden Valley.
00:15:26That's where you shall meet him.
00:15:28Hercules.
00:15:29Yes, the invincible.
00:15:31Hercules!
00:15:43They are crying for Hercules, oh Zeus.
00:15:46And we seem immune to their suffering.
00:15:49I have hesitated.
00:15:51Because man must learn to stand on his own two feet.
00:15:55I blame our own gods if man has failed.
00:16:00I am the one who has failed.
00:16:03I am the one who has failed.
00:16:06I am the one who has failed.
00:16:09I am the one who has failed.
00:16:11There has been wickedness here in Olympus,
00:16:14and I am powerless.
00:16:16The moon is wild.
00:16:18It looms bigger every day as it moves in on its mother planet.
00:16:22The foolish gods who stole my seven thunderbolts
00:16:25are the cause of this disorder.
00:16:27There is no other hope but to summon the greatest warrior ever known.
00:16:32He will stop the rebel gods
00:16:34and recover my seven thunderbolts.
00:16:42Hercules!
00:16:44Hercules!
00:16:47Return to Earth!
00:16:49Retrieve my seven thunderbolts, which allow me to maintain order.
00:16:53Make haste, Hercules,
00:16:55lest the planets destroy themselves and all living things.

00:19:46Hercules is here on Earth
00:19:48and has already converted one of the seven thunderbolts.
00:19:52Should he find all seven, our plans will be shattered.
00:19:56No. The lightning lies in the bellies of monsters
00:20:00and they roam in places inaccessible to man.
00:20:03I hope you're right, Hera.
00:20:05Zeus will be destroyed, and as for Hercules,
00:20:08someone has waited many years for revenge.
00:20:12Am I right, Flora?
00:20:14I've arranged it all, dear Hera.
00:20:17I've called upon the warrior, Goras.
00:20:21He's ambitious, has few scruples,
00:20:24and will consent to any request.
00:20:27The fool seeks the status of a demigod,
00:20:30but lacks the gentility.
00:20:33He will serve us well.
00:20:37Flora!
00:20:39Flora!
00:21:00Ah, there you are.
00:21:03First you nearly blind me,
00:21:06and then you hide in shadow.
00:21:09Why have you summoned me to such a dreary place?
00:21:12You always wanted to know the secrets of darkness,
00:21:16and now your wish is about to be answered.
00:21:20Come.
00:21:34This is...
00:21:39It's the secret tomb of King Minos of Thera.
00:21:42Good for you, Goras.
00:21:44His cursed ashes lie here.
00:21:46But his knowledge and power cannot be imprisoned forever.
00:21:50Release them.
00:21:52No.
00:21:54No.
00:21:56No.
00:21:58No.
00:22:00No.
00:22:02Release them.
00:22:33Release them.
00:22:41He's nothing but bones.
00:22:43Of course, but through resurrection he shall rise again.
00:22:47But in order to have life,
00:22:50one must take life.
00:22:52Yours, Flora.
00:22:59Poseidon.
00:23:02Aphrodite.
00:23:05Hera.
00:23:09Minos can now be stirred from his eternal sleep.
00:23:13I have my misgivings, Flora.
00:23:15Minos was always up to mischief and deception.
00:23:18But we've the power to handle him.
00:23:21Flora did well to slay the warrior Goras.
00:23:33Now, the blood of this man
00:23:37will give life back to Minos.
00:24:02Minos.
00:24:32Minos.
00:24:41Who awakens me?
00:24:52It is you three.
00:24:58What do you want, Hera?
00:25:01Minos has brought Hercules back to life.
00:25:04We need your help. He must be eliminated.
00:25:07And whatever you wish will be yours.
00:25:10Hmm.
00:25:12Now, Minos!
00:25:15You know I've never put much stock on the promises of gods.
00:25:20But it's not often that fulfilling one's obligations
00:25:24can be such pleasure.
00:25:31Come.
00:26:01Come.
00:26:31Oh, help! Help me!
00:26:33Easy. Calm down.
00:26:35Calm down, and I shall help.
00:26:37They thought I was dead,
00:26:39but they took my friend Urania with them.
00:26:42Who took her?
00:26:44The slime people. They ambushed us.
00:26:47They rise out of the mud and mire and hold you by suction.
00:26:51Where did they go?
00:26:53Through the cave.
00:26:55The cave?
00:26:57Yes.
00:26:59Where did they go?
00:27:01Through the wild, towards a great mouth of stone.
00:27:05The Forbidden Valley.
00:27:07You should know that this is a very dangerous region.
00:27:19This way.
00:27:30Oh!
00:27:38Glacia?
00:27:43Urania!
00:27:47Hercules! I thought you were still...
00:27:49Hurry. There's no time now.
00:27:53No!
00:27:59No!
00:28:18Hold on.
00:28:20Good girl.
00:28:23Come on.
00:28:29Ah!
00:28:41Quick! Inside the stone mouth.
00:28:43They're coming!
00:28:45Inside. Inside.
00:29:00What was that?
00:29:02It could be the work of gods. Careful.
00:29:04But the gods always forewarn earthly people.
00:29:07There are evil gods.
00:29:09How can we tell?
00:29:11Don't worry.
00:29:13For now, no one's bothering us.
00:29:15They seemed afraid of this place, and yet they brought you here.
00:29:19They were going to sacrifice me to something.
00:29:22Something that lives in here.
00:29:24The currents change direction at this point.
00:29:27The air flow takes this way.
00:29:29Come. Follow me.
00:29:32Where do you...
00:29:33Quiet.
00:29:45Shh.
00:29:48It is we who trespass.
00:29:51Welcome, earthlings.
00:29:54It is a rare pleasure to have you in our midst.
00:30:01Who art thou?
00:30:03I am Euryale.
00:30:06Come into my palace.
00:30:25They look real.
00:30:31These statues, they look as quiet and still as mummies.
00:30:35As if the sculptor caught his subjects unaware.
00:30:40They have a very realistic look in the eye.
00:30:43They seem to be tense, quivering.
00:30:45There is nothing more beautiful than the human body.
00:30:49Caught in a moment of tension and sculpt.
00:30:52Forever in stone.
00:30:55Immortalized.
00:30:57Great deeds make us immortal.
00:31:00We can't all be so fortunate.
00:31:04Come.
00:31:12Where do you take us, Euryale?
00:31:16Where do you take us, Euryale?
00:31:18To safety.
00:31:20These caves are a labyrinth.
00:31:22It is very easy to get lost.
00:31:24Beyond these columns lies the way out.
00:31:27We didn't come in through here.
00:31:29You'll find another way out down there.
00:31:33Visitors on these lands are forbidden.
00:31:36I've led you safely underground through the Forbidden Valley.
00:31:41We thank you for your help.
00:31:52Fight them! Fight them!
00:32:12Wait!
00:32:20Hercules!
00:32:33Euryale is gone.
00:32:35She's one of the gargoyle monsters who turn men into stone at a single glance.
00:32:39She's one of the gods I'm looking for.
00:32:41Now that we're past the Forbidden Valley, we'll continue the journey.
00:32:44But you must leave this dungeon now and I'll...
00:32:47Don't tempt the gods. You must go now.
00:32:54Wait for me. I shan't be long.
00:33:10I'm over here.
00:33:15Poor Hercules.
00:33:17King Zeus sent you on a long journey.
00:33:20What a shame it must end here.
00:33:23Be stilled forever like stone.
00:33:29I'm over here.
00:33:31I'm over here.
00:33:33I'm over here.
00:33:35Be stilled forever like stone with me.
00:33:42I will find you. I'm coming.
00:33:45Yes, do come.
00:33:48Let me look at you.
00:33:51Hercules!
00:34:00Hercules.
00:34:02I'm over here.
00:34:10Hercules!
00:34:14I'm over here.
00:34:16I'm over here.
00:34:22I'm over here.
00:34:31I'm over here.
00:34:33Come look at me.
00:34:36Look at yourself, dear you, really.
00:34:39And use my shield as a mirror.
00:34:46Hercules.
00:35:16Hercules has discovered the second thunderbolt and Minos disappeared for three days and three
00:35:46nights. Minos has been sailing east. I know. I followed him to the edge of time and space.
00:35:52You could have changed the winds. His science changed them back.
00:35:56He uses science against godly powers. I don't trust him.
00:36:00Our purpose is the same. That is to kill Hercules.
00:36:06I must find a way to overcome the fire monster's radiant heat.
00:36:10I am not immune to the energy Antaeus releases. The little people use cunning against power.
00:36:15I think they will listen to me. Then let us go to the little people.
00:36:19But to reach them we'll have to cross the doomed forest where the demon Tartarus reigns.
00:36:23We can't go back now. Then you'll save the maidens of the jester.
00:36:27Fate has already willed it. Zeus has sent me here to find his mighty thunderbolts
00:36:33and one of them is inside Antaeus's belly.
00:36:51It's so gloomy here like a land of lost souls. That's what they are.
00:36:56They're dolls, hundreds of thousands. It's the work of a fiend.
00:37:06Once they were humans or demigods. This resembles hell on earth.
00:37:12And to think that Tartarus was once a favorite of King Zeus
00:37:16until one day he offended the king and was banished.
00:37:20He's been living in this forest for thousands of years.
00:37:24It is said he poisons the trees and that the splinters are deadly.
00:37:28If we go another way we'll lose time. But...
00:37:31He could have attacked us had he wanted. There's little else we can do but face him.
00:37:35Wait here.
00:37:40Urania, I'm scared. I'm terrified.
00:38:24So
00:38:48show yourself. I'm here.
00:38:51Let us cross the forest in peace.
00:38:57I rule the world of the dead. I have sent many a valiant soul to Hades.
00:39:11Did I frighten the son of Zeus?
00:39:20You are doomed.
00:39:24Die. Die.
00:39:29You will join my forest of dangling souls. Where are you?
00:39:35Here. Your death shall free the souls.
00:39:47The third thunderbolt.
00:39:50All beings but us will perish and I shall regenerate mankind to my own likeness.
00:39:59I am Chaos.
00:40:02This sword of ice has existed from the beginning of time and with it
00:40:07you will have the gods at your feet.
00:40:09I'll have the gods at my feet?
00:40:11Yes, Minos.
00:40:12The sword was forged for Cronus at the time of creation
00:40:15and later when Zeus conquered Cronus I stole the sword
00:40:19and hid it for this occasion.
00:40:22The gods have always underestimated me, Deedless.
00:40:25And they will be punished for it.
00:40:27For the sake of my honor.
00:40:30With this sword, science shall triumph.
00:40:37I give it to you now. It is to be used only once.
00:40:49Beware, ye gods, of the science of Minos.
00:41:04Here we are.
00:41:05That's the way to the little people through the ancient naos of Lakunt.
00:41:09They see and hear what we cannot.
00:41:11Then you'll wait here?
00:41:12Yes.
00:41:13Good luck, Urania.
00:41:15I won't be long.
00:41:20Where the fires are high, I invoke you, Clotho and Lachesis.
00:41:39What brings thee here, Urania?
00:41:43You had made your choice.
00:41:45You found Hercules and destiny is being fulfilled.
00:41:49Yes, and we thank you for it.
00:41:51And would ask you this.
00:41:52How can Hercules stand up to Antaeus and not meet his death?
00:41:55To your question, we do know the answer.
00:41:58But first, Urania, you must find the one and only substance
00:42:03that can give protection to man against the flames of the fire monster.
00:42:08Antaeus.
00:42:09It is the healing secret balm of Nonocryl.
00:42:13Made out of drops of water from the river Styx.
00:42:17Where is it?
00:42:19You and Hercules must reach the sea and find there the sanctuary of Thetis.
00:42:25She will tell you what Hercules and you must do to face Antaeus.
00:42:30Fire can only be defeated by water.
00:42:33Yes, but how can we find her sanctuary under such deep water?
00:42:37You will have gills like fish if you swallow these precious herbs.
00:42:41And you will breathe like the inhabitants of the sea.
00:42:44Take these golden leaves of the consecrated gardens of Hesper.
00:43:00Hercules, I've got the secret.
00:43:03Tell me, how can we stop the fire monster?
00:43:05We'll have to journey.
00:43:06Where to?
00:43:07No, you must stay here, Garcia.
00:43:09Don't you think we should stay together?
00:43:11The little people speak in the name of Zeus and we will have to do what they say.
00:43:15Their words reflect the faithfulness of the gods.
00:43:18They only speak the truth.
00:43:20It is best, Garcia.
00:43:22Wait for us here and don't worry.
00:43:24We'll not be long.
00:43:34You say the little people spoke of Thetis and the sea kingdom?
00:43:38Yes, and the door to it lies below there.
00:43:41That's many leaks beneath the sea.
00:43:43We needn't fear.
00:43:45We shall breathe like water creatures, thanks to this.
00:43:49The little people gave them to me.
00:43:51Oh, what is that?
00:43:52Time is short.
00:43:53Take it.
00:43:56Didn't you say the little people always spoke the truth?
00:44:38Look there.
00:44:42Yes, it's the temple of Thetis, the Nereid.
00:45:08Welcome, my friends.
00:45:21Do not be alarmed.
00:45:23You don't see me speak, but you hear the projection of my thought.
00:45:27You come in the name of Zeus, I know.
00:45:30We have very little time and we need your help.
00:45:33It shall not be denied.
00:45:36The sacred bomb the little people spoke to you about was made with three drops
00:45:41taken from the river Styx that flows through Hades.
00:45:44If you spread the bomb from head to toe, you shall, for a short while,
00:45:49resist the incinerating flames of Antis, the fire monster.
00:45:55If I'm able to resist the heat for the time it takes to discover his secret,
00:46:00then Thegesta will be free.
00:46:02Yes, the maidens of Thegesta shall be free of danger.
00:46:06But not for long.
00:46:08The thunderbolts that were stolen from Zeus have caused havoc in the skies.
00:46:14The moon no longer obeys the earth.
00:46:16The tides have swum in the seas.
00:46:19You must find the remaining thunderbolts or our planet shall surely be crushed.
00:46:24Will be crushed?
00:46:25The moon?
00:46:27Yes, it is coming upon us.
00:46:29The meridians have been changed.
00:46:31Unless cosmic balance is re-established, it will mean the annihilation of all living things,
00:46:37perhaps even the gods.
00:46:39We cannot let this happen.
00:46:40We must stop it now.
00:46:42Hercules and Urania, you hold the fate of all that has been created in your hands.
00:46:49I give you the sacred bomb you have come for.
00:46:53Go and face the fire monster at once.
00:47:02Are you all right?
00:47:04Yes, yes, let's go.
00:47:16Where is she?
00:47:17I don't know.
00:47:19Glossia?
00:47:26Glossia?
00:47:27Would she have gone around that point?
00:47:29Well, it's not like her.
00:47:31It's strange.
00:47:33It's strange.
00:47:39Look there.
00:47:49It's a shield.
00:47:49It's a shield.
00:48:01I know this shield.
00:48:04Whose is it?
00:48:06It belongs to the High Priest and to his soldiers.
00:48:10The priest who invokes the fire monster.
00:48:13That means they came here to get her and to sacrifice her.
00:48:16They can't be my enemies.
00:48:17to get her and to sacrifice her.
00:48:19They can't be far ahead of us.
00:48:21We'll reach her in time.
00:48:22Great gods, don't let me die!
00:48:24Oh, I beg!
00:48:26Please, please help me!
00:48:28Help me!
00:48:30No, no, don't let me die!
00:48:33I invoke thee, Antius.
00:48:37Lord of fire, we offer you the last daughter of the jester.
00:48:44Come, here is your victim.
00:48:57It's ghastly.
00:49:00No, no!
00:49:08It's hell!
00:49:09Hell on earth!
00:49:11Take it away!
00:49:15No!
00:49:17No!
00:49:18No!
00:49:23It's Antius!
00:49:25Help!
00:49:26Anteros!
00:49:29I am ready for you!
00:49:31Hercules!
00:49:44No!
00:50:14No!
00:50:44Antius is dead.
00:51:14We've been set free.
00:51:15Hercules has found the fourth lightning bolt,
00:51:17but this is only the beginning.
00:51:19The beginning?
00:51:21We're rid of the monster.
00:51:23The problem is not just Antius.
00:51:25Our Mother Earth is in great danger,
00:51:28and mankind will perish
00:51:30unless we can help Hercules find the three remaining thunderbolts.
00:51:37I think Minos is up to his old tricks again,
00:51:39always experimenting.
00:51:41We did not rebel against Zeus only to join forces with disaster.
00:51:46No, we rebelled against Zeus to be free, completely free.
00:51:51Should he succeed in collecting all his thunderbolts,
00:51:55Zeus will be back in full force.
00:51:57Why hasn't Minos stopped him yet?
00:52:00Minos doesn't need our advice.
00:52:02The clashing of these two enemies is unavoidable.
00:52:06Minos is preparing a nice little surprise for Hercules.
00:52:09Oh, is he?
00:52:10At this very moment.
00:52:12Meanwhile, Flora is keeping Minos in check.
00:52:15Yes. In fact, he asked that I appear before him.
00:52:18Perhaps the three of us should appear.
00:52:20He's diabolically clever.
00:52:22But Flora's the one who brought him back from eternal sleep.
00:52:25He seems to trust her most.
00:52:27He trusts no one.
00:52:29Let us hope for the best.
00:52:30The stars be with you, Flora.
00:52:32Thank you, Her.
00:52:39Bless you.
00:52:59You're late in answering my call.
00:53:02The gods have done what you wanted, Minos.
00:53:04Yet Hercules succeeds in his mission.
00:53:06He's found four thunderbolts while you...
00:53:08you just disappear.
00:53:10You're acting as though you were a god.
00:53:12I am much more than a god, Flora.
00:53:14You're mad, Minos.
00:53:16The time has come to dissolve the bond
00:53:19that ties me with foolish gods unworthy of my talents.
00:53:23Those gods will annihilate you, Minos.
00:53:26Be careful.
00:53:27Your concern for me is touching,
00:53:29especially since it comes at the moment
00:53:32when you should be afraid for yourself.
00:53:34Flora, goddess of spring,
00:53:37I deliver you into the land of frost.
00:53:41Of ice!
00:54:05The little people used to appear in this temple
00:54:08before the fire monster destroyed it.
00:54:11If only I could call them back.
00:54:17What is it, Urania?
00:54:19I... I feel another presence.
00:54:23It's strange.
00:54:25As if...
00:54:29Urania, are you certain this is the place?
00:54:33The temple has always meant a lot to the little people.
00:54:36I've always talked to them, but now I can't feel their presence.
00:54:40There is another way, although it's difficult and very dangerous.
00:54:44How is that?
00:54:45I shall consult an oracle.
00:54:47What oracle?
00:54:48The oracle of death.
00:54:49Let me go now. I'll be back.
00:54:51Why the oracle of death?
00:54:53The little people are spirits.
00:54:55They're not of this world.
00:54:57Have faith in me, Hercules, and wait for me.
00:55:04Take this magic potion in your hands
00:55:08and transmit your thought to me.
00:55:11I shall hear it.
00:55:14Sweet oracle of death,
00:55:16help me to reach the little people.
00:55:19Drink the potion.
00:55:22Sweet oracle of death,
00:55:24help me to reach the little people.
00:55:27Drink the potion.
00:55:53We're sorry we couldn't come to you, dear Urania,
00:55:57but the Earth is a difficult place, even for spirits.
00:56:01It's much safer here in the astral world,
00:56:04amidst the stars, moons, and planets.
00:56:13They say there is chaos here, too.
00:56:17Where shall we ever take our poor spirits?
00:56:22I don't know.
00:56:53We know that you have come here, Urania,
00:56:57to find out where the goddess Hera
00:57:00and her rebellious sisters
00:57:02have hidden the rest of Zeus's thunderbolts.
00:57:05Not even the gods have secrets from us.
00:57:08We could tell you where they are,
00:57:10but your search will be extremely difficult.
00:57:13You've been chosen by the gods,
00:57:15and you must find out where they are.
00:57:18Here they are, but your search will be extremely difficult.
00:57:21You've been chosen to help Hercules retrieve the thunderbolts,
00:57:25but you weren't told of the risks that are involved.
00:57:28Zeus knows that for universal peace,
00:57:30you are ready to sacrifice all.
00:57:32Yes, it will mean your life.
00:57:42There's something strange about this old temple.
00:57:45Urania and I have been here before.
00:57:47And she'd come to consult the oracle?
00:57:49Yes.
00:57:50She inherited her powers from her mother,
00:57:53her adopted mother, a priestess of Corinth.
00:57:56And her father?
00:57:58We don't know.
00:57:59But when her mother died,
00:58:01she was taken in by my parents in Thagesta.
00:58:04And they've since died.
00:58:05We have had a hard life,
00:58:07and that is why Urania and I are so close.
00:58:10My family and ancestors had lived in Thagesta
00:58:13since time forgotten.
00:58:16But after Antaeus descended upon us, all changed.
00:58:19Now we only live to defend ourselves.
00:58:21We're...
00:58:24What was that?
00:58:25What did you hear?
00:58:27Something that came from that direction.
00:58:33Are you certain, Glacia?
00:58:37Well, I thought I did.
00:58:42I already told you I had my misgivings.
00:58:46No!
00:58:55Who are these people?
00:58:56Women warriors!
00:58:57The Amazons of Scythia!
00:59:08Be careful of the Queen, Hercules!
00:59:11She is the most evil of all!
00:59:15Ugh!
00:59:46Hercules!
01:00:00The net!
01:00:01Throw the net on him!
01:00:16What will we do with her?
01:00:17We'll come back for her later.
01:00:19Yes, Captain.
01:00:46Rise, Your Majesty.
01:00:48Rise up from the fires, my Queen.
01:00:51Rise and let your burning flesh meld together
01:00:55with the body of your victim.
01:01:06You've a choice prize in your net,
01:01:09O Queen of Spiders.
01:01:16Hercules!
01:01:19Hercules awaits you, my Queen.
01:01:26Go.
01:01:27Leave me.
01:01:45Urania!
01:01:47Urania!
01:01:48Glacia, what happened?
01:01:50You bruised your head.
01:01:52We've been attacked and they took Hercules
01:01:54and they left me there thinking that I was dead.
01:01:57Who?
01:01:58Who did it?
01:01:59It was me.
01:02:00It was you, Glacia.
01:02:02I'm sorry.
01:02:03I can't believe it.
01:02:05It was you.
01:02:06It's not me.
01:02:07It was you.
01:02:08It's not me.
01:02:09It's not me.
01:02:10It's not me.
01:02:11It was you.
01:02:12It's not me.
01:02:13It's not me.
01:02:14Who did it?
01:02:15While fighting the Amazons.
01:02:17The Spider Queen?
01:02:18Yes.
01:02:19He's at her mercy.
01:02:21Caught in her magnetic web.
01:02:27She's a monster who has assumed the likeness of a human.
01:02:31There's little we can do, Urania.
01:02:36I call to thee, Powers of Light.
01:02:39Transfer unto Hercules thy energy to win.
01:02:45Her love is evil.
01:02:47He must kill her or he will die.
01:03:14The Fifth Thunderbolt.
01:03:38I deliver it to you, Zeus.
01:03:44The Goddess Hera was the instrument of my return to Earth, but not the cause.
01:03:58Fate needed me here.
01:04:00Now, Daedalus, this is surely an important moment for science.
01:04:07For me, the goal of science is to release chaos and disorder.
01:04:11Hera, Daedalus, make me the ally of trickery and of chaos.
01:04:19It'll serve you well.
01:04:27I bestow cunning, connivance, and chaos.
01:04:40We four gods are doomed, Hera.
01:04:42It was a grave mistake to rebel against Zeus.
01:04:45Poseidon is right.
01:04:47Hercules has discovered the Fifth Thunderbolt.
01:04:49And soon, Zeus will shatter Minos.
01:04:51No.
01:04:52Hercules cannot compete with Minos.
01:04:54His science is invincible.
01:04:56And once Hercules is defeated, we shall rid ourselves of Minos.
01:05:00Invincible?
01:05:01Not from the looks of things.
01:05:02Flora was instantly felled by the Sword of Ice.
01:05:06You carry on so, and yet would consider yourselves gods.
01:05:10You're like ordinary mortals, without dignity.
01:05:18Yes, without dignity.
01:05:21Science and chaos have given me the power to eliminate you all.
01:05:33Flee Aphrodite!
01:05:35Hera!
01:06:00Beware Minos.
01:06:04Beware of what?
01:06:06Of your quivering frame?
01:06:12A goddess in my power.
01:06:15You did not conquer us.
01:06:17I admit we were all divided by jealousy.
01:06:20But Zeus will have his day.
01:06:23Zeus?
01:06:26Zeus is nil without his Thunderbolts.
01:06:29And with Hercules' help, they'll all soon be mine.
01:06:33He'll not agree to that.
01:06:35Oh, no, you're wrong, my dear Hera.
01:06:37Hercules works for me, though he's not aware of it.
01:06:40But now you shall tell me where the last Thunderbolt is hidden.
01:06:46Never.
01:06:47Oh, I can wait.
01:06:49Never is only a question of time.
01:06:53Follow me.
01:06:54Where does this lead?
01:06:55To the edge of the world.
01:06:56But we needn't fear, Hercules.
01:06:58Then these are the wastelands of Hesperia,
01:07:01the last bulwark before ascending Mount Olympus.
01:07:05Our destiny takes us up through there.
01:07:07Then lead on.
01:07:09There are still two Thunderbolts for you to uncover, oh Hercules.
01:07:14Be patient, my son.
01:07:16I shall guide you to them.
01:07:25Where are we now?
01:07:27Shh, quiet.
01:07:30We're in the Temple of Echoes,
01:07:33where the words of men reflect those of the gods,
01:07:37and everything reflects itself.
01:08:08Look there.
01:08:10The reflected light of a Thunderbolt.
01:08:13The foolish gods have repented.
01:08:16Yes, the gods have been graced.
01:08:21Now, Zeus, it's time to crush the forces of chaos.
01:08:26The time to fulfill our destinies.
01:08:38Glossia!
01:08:40Glossia!
01:08:42One move and she dies.
01:08:44The moment of truth is here.
01:08:46I'm not who you think I am.
01:08:48Glossia is dead.
01:08:50Yes, thanks to Glossia, I knew your every move, Hercules.
01:08:54Now that you've found the sixth Thunderbolt,
01:08:56it's time we faced each other.
01:08:59Maybe.
01:09:01I don't know.
01:09:03Sixth Thunderbolt, it's time we faced each other.
01:09:07Minas, not again.
01:09:09Yes, I'm back, thanks to the gods.
01:09:14Actually, I've been back for a while,
01:09:18from that time at that lonely beach
01:09:20when you lost sight of Glossia.
01:09:22Remember?
01:09:23I had called upon Poseidon,
01:09:24and he commanded that the waters
01:09:26drain the life out of the real Glossia.
01:09:50Glossia, it's not possible.
01:09:53How can it be?
01:09:55We created an exact replica of the original,
01:09:58better than the original, at least for us.
01:10:03Her emotional and mental responses
01:10:05appear to be the same,
01:10:07but we scientifically altered the course of her destiny.
01:10:11She was not aware of it until this very moment.
01:10:15Hercules, there's no need for us to fight.
01:10:19With the aid of Chaos,
01:10:20I have subdued the gods who rebelled against Zeus.
01:10:23Alone, without the full array of his Thunderbolts,
01:10:26Zeus is no match for Chaos.
01:10:29The future belongs to Chaos, and to science.
01:10:34Join us, Hercules. Come.
01:10:37Never!
01:10:38Very well.
01:10:46Those foolish gods wanted him destroyed.
01:10:49Instead, I shall use him.
01:10:51Can you imagine?
01:10:52A mankind created in his image,
01:10:55but scientifically programmed.
01:10:58No error.
01:11:03Glossia, my dear,
01:11:07we no longer need you.
01:11:10Get rid of yourself.
01:11:22Excellent.
01:11:24I'm sure, Urania, you know the way.
01:11:30One must accept inevitable defeat.
01:11:33I can only accept it as a challenge, Minos.
01:11:39Very amusing.
01:11:42Zeus!
01:11:43You are viewing my sacred domain, dear Daedalus.
01:11:48I am simply returned.
01:11:51I am the god of the universe,
01:11:54and I am the god of the universe.
01:11:57I am the god of the universe,
01:12:00and I am the god of the universe.
01:12:04I am the god of the universe,
01:12:07dear Daedalus.
01:12:09I am simply returned.
01:12:12You can't.
01:12:14You are the light,
01:12:16I am the darkness.
01:12:19But I possess time.
01:12:24I am the son of Cronos.
01:12:28Oh, father of time!
01:13:07I have failed, Athena, and allowed Minos to trick me.
01:13:21It's yours, Hercules.
01:13:24This shield will protect you from Minos and evil science.
01:13:33But only if you can save yourself.
01:13:36The moon shall crush the earth if Minos has his way.
01:13:39He will sacrifice us all so as to reign in the name of chaos.
01:13:43Hercules, go on to Olympic skies.
01:13:51I've the gods in the palm of my hand.
01:13:54My science has turned pure energy into battling warriors.
01:13:58But we have the greatest warrior of all time, Minos.
01:14:02Suddenly, you're for Hercules?
01:14:12We doubt he can change the earth's course.
01:14:15Watch this!
01:14:32Minos, attack!
01:15:02There's one thing your magic shield won't protect you from, Hercules.
01:15:12Pure energy.
01:15:18Cosmic light.
01:15:26The sun's fire.
01:15:29Take this, Hercules.
01:15:35It is of the same energy, and you shall be infused with it.
01:15:40You are the heart and the force of the universe.
01:15:45Hercules!
01:16:15Minos!
01:16:45Minos!
01:17:15Minos!
01:17:17Minos!
01:17:45Minos!
01:18:15Minos challenged the universe and the very secret of life.
01:18:20His savagery has been cancelled.
01:18:23The maiden Urania is free, and the goddess Hera has repented.
01:18:30Hercules did what no other man could have done.
01:18:33But danger still lurks in the skies.
01:18:36It could all be resolved by finding the last thunderbolt.
01:18:41The oracles say it was hidden up here on Olympus.
01:18:45But that's not so.
01:18:47How can the oracles lie?
01:18:49It is here.
01:18:52Your secret was revealed to me.
01:18:55You, Hera, are my mother, and you hid the last thunderbolt within me.
01:19:01In my heart.
01:19:04And I am the final hiding place.
01:19:10You're my mother, Hera.
01:19:14Yes, it's true.
01:19:16I created you from light, and I breathed life into you.
01:19:21I had you formed with beauty and goodness,
01:19:24but only to conceal what was hidden within you.
01:19:27Yet I grew fond of you and often asked myself,
01:19:31can she, would she ever feel love for me?
01:19:37And now?
01:19:41And now, Mother, you must do what fate demands of you.
01:19:47I gave you life, my child.
01:19:49I never thought I would have to take it from you.
01:19:52You must.
01:19:53Please don't.
01:19:55Mother, there's little time.
01:19:58But isn't there?
01:19:59Hurry.
01:20:00How else can we save the world, my child?
01:20:04Mother, give me the kiss of death.
01:20:18Oh, love.
01:20:21My beloved daughter.
01:20:34Oh.
01:21:05Oh.
01:21:08Oh.
01:21:31Chaos has been defeated.
01:21:34If another threat arises, the Earth is surely doomed.
01:21:39Can mankind withstand the dangers?
01:21:42Only our fear can defeat us.
01:21:45Man always finds a way to conquer.
01:21:47Not without the gods.
01:21:49But I am here, am I not?
01:21:51How can a man stop the Earth from colliding with the moon?
01:21:55The way Atlantis did at the beginning of time.
01:21:58My newfound powers shall belong to him, Hercules.
01:22:03Grow, Hercules. Grow.
01:22:25Hercules, block the moon.
01:22:29Stop the Earth.
01:22:32Save mankind.
01:23:02Stop the Earth.
01:23:32Stop the Earth.
01:23:35Stop the Earth.
01:23:58Now order is re-established.
01:24:03Hera.
01:24:05You sacrificed what was dearest to you to save the universe.
01:24:09And so I forgive you.
01:24:12And forgive those gods who had lost faith and rebelled against me.
01:24:16Let peace reign again and forever on Olympus.
01:24:20And on Earth.
01:24:22So be it.
01:24:24Forevermore.
01:24:26To reward you for your sacrifice.
01:24:28And Urania for hers.
01:24:31I decree that she become one of the Muses.
01:24:34Granting wisdom from this time on to man and to the gods.
01:24:40Urania, goddess and muse of space.
01:24:44Patron of astrology.
01:24:49And you too, Hercules.
01:24:51Greatest of men and savior of the universe.
01:24:55You too shall dwell among the immortal gods.
01:24:58And the example of your courage will shine in the heavens till the end of time.
01:25:28THE END
01:25:58THE END
01:26:01THE END
01:26:28THE END
01:26:58THE END
01:27:28THE END
