GREAT EPIC BIBICAL ADVENTURE WITH LOTS OF ACTION

I first saw this epic on a small TV screen in B&W and it impressed me then and still does. Brad Harris is the star but plays just another one of the main characters. In 1963, you would expect him to play a Hercules type character. Brad does a great job throughout the movie. What most people don't spot is ALAN STEEL playing Jakar, a Syrian officer. He can be spotted in at least 30+ scenes and was probably in many more. Alan Steel would later go on to star a Hercules in his own series of hit movies. Most notably, the box office hit, HERCULES AGAINST THE MOONMEN in 1965. I have posted all the Alan Steel parts on Y/T. Enjoy the action.
