| nudity | As this is a "muscle man" film, the lead often appears without his shirt and during his journey, wears mostly a pair of leg-less trunks. Mostly eye-candy for female audiences who enjoy muscular men. A woman is tied to an alleged brainwashing machine. She spends most of the remainder of the film suspended on a table to this machine. Might be considered a mild form of female bondage. Two women wear two-piece gowns that expose their stomachs and cleavage. One very muscular woman wears single-piece swimsuit-like armor, that shows off much of her physique. She is mostly flat-chested and little cleavage is shown. The heroes explore an island that is occupied by Amazon women. Each man falls prey to the Amazons in some form. 1. A man is shot by a sleep dart in his butt and carried off by women. 2. Another man follows an Amazon acrobat he spots back-flipping through the island forest. She eventually jumps on top of his shoulders, landing to the ground where the man finds himself (happily) pinned between her legs, before she draws a knife on him. 3. The main hero is seduced by the Amazon Queen after she dances for him. Afterwards they kiss. The Amazon Queen seduces the entire team of heroes with another dance. A man and woman lay in bed together. The scene only captures foreplay as they only hold and kiss each other. No nudity. |
| violence | Many of the fight scenes are cartoonish, with exaggerated feats of strength throughout. There is a torture room scene where most of the heroes have been brought to and are attached to various devices. One is to be burnt alive by branding irons, another is tied to a stretching table, while another is set in a chair suspended over a tank of (fake) piranhas. There is a fight scene in the torture room where the hero saves his friends. All the guards end up falling into the tank full of (fake) piranhas. The head torturer is ran front-first into an open Iron Maiden that instantly closes up. There is a fight aboard a ship involving demon warriors. The hero punches through the chest of the lead demon, pulling out its heart shaped like a demon face. He then crushes the heart in his hand. There is a fight between a man and two zombie henchmen as he attempts to rescue a woman. During the fight, the man rips off a zombie's arm at its elbow. A brief spurt of blood is shown. There is a fight scene between two characters that are identical. One is good and one is evil. Their fight takes place on a platform suspended above a bed of burning coals. The scene is almost more of a wrestling match and both characters exchange holds. The evil twin is tossed over into the hot coals and is burned alive. It is a quick, off-screen death and only mild steam rises up from where the twin fell. |
| profanity | Only 1 use of "damn" during the whole film. |
| alcohol | It is possible the heroes were drinking wine during a scene in the marketplace. A man offers a soldier a drink, but is refused. This is the only time there might have been implied "drinking". |
| frightening | For a cliché Italian adventure film, there is nothing that is actually frightening. Younger audiences may be simply grossed out by the zombie-like monsters the hero fights, as they are quite ugly and slimy-looking. There is the "foul and horrible beast" covered in green slime that the hero must fight, but it's really more "gross"-looking than scary-looking. Most of the fight scenes and monster scenes are very cartoonish in tone and not at all frightening. |
