Curiosidades
Carlo Rambaldi was the responsible for the Cyclops special effects. He received credit as "creazione animate", which translates to "animated creation".

Erros de gravação
The 'giant' cyclops is clearly just a guy in a suit, most obvious whenever one of its muscular attackers leaps over and hangs onto it, and they transform into a small skinny boy (obviously in an attempt to make it appear much larger).

Citações
Regina Gaia: [to Giasone/Jason] We're both like trees which produce a marvelous fruit that no one is allowed to gather.

Beware, the witch-babes turned us into talking sheep

Elaborate sets, imaginative monsters, bloody battles, and the usual quota of oiled hard-bodies fighting over sultry beauties, "Giants of Thessaly" is a coherent and well-produced entry in the 'peplum', or sword and sandal genre. Here, the evil Adrasto (Farnese wearing a great beard sans moustache) is plotting to overtake Thessaly and forcibly acquire the yummy-mummy Creusa (brief international starlet Rodann) as his wife, but must first persuade the kingdom that his cousin and rightful ruler King Jason (Carey) is not returning from his treacherous journey to recover the coveted golden fleece.

Jason and his argonauts battle a giant cyclops, a mysterious island of witches masquerading as beauties, and encounter talking sheep as they bumble their way to glory and return to Thessaly to find Adrasto on the brink of taking Creusa as his wife. It's formulaic but satisfying nonetheless. Carey isn't quite as ripped as his contemporaries Reg Park or Brad Harris, but he still seems to charm the ladies.

Some bloody battles (check out the guy with the arrow through his ears), a ubiquitous dancing scene and even a sermon on the virtues of first true love, there's surely something for everyone if you're prepared to ensconce yourself in this unique brand of Italian film-making.
