Wild, Wild Podcast's Luigi Cozzi Season Episode 3 - HERCULES (1983)

Listen in as Adrian and I put on our tiny leather skirts, grab our weapons (mind out of the gutter!) and jump into adventure. We discuss both of Cozzi's 1980's Hercules films starring Lou Ferrigno and a double handful of familiar Euro-cult faces. We talk about how these Cannon produced movies came about, how Cozzi was brought in to helm them and why the second one is so damned much stranger than the first. Luckily, the writer/director is on record about these movies so we have lots of fun behind the scenes tidbits and some real insight into the reasons these memorable throwback sword & sorcery films were successful for Golan & Globus.

If you have any favorite Luigi Cozzi films we'd love to hear from you. You can contact us on Twitter and Instagram or at wildwildpodcast@gmail.com with an email or recorded voicemail. And please remember to rate and review us on your podcast listening platform of choice! Thank you and we'll be back soon.
