This is a silly, silly movie.
When militant bikini-model amazons ride out on the warpath it is up to local superhero Dharma (Aldo Canti) to protect the villages in the valley (that is why they give him one-fifth of all their harvests after all!) But Dharma can't fight off an army of Amazons with just his mad jumping skills, his spiffy leather mask, and his half-length red cape, so he enlists the help of superstrong Moog (Marc Hannibal) and kung fu master Chung (Shaw Brothers actor Hua Yueh). Together the three of them spend much of the following ninety minutes getting into fights. With all this fighting going on, will they ever manage to find enough down time to fashion a stockpile of homemade firebombs and three wooden tanks for their final battle against the amazons?
This movie was a co-production by legendary Hong Kong studio Shaw Brothers and Italian studio Cinemotografica, and was released the same year Shaw Brothers released the better know Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires with Hammer Studios. The film was shot in Italy and despite the Shaw Brother's participation, it doesn't have that their Hong-Kong movies do.
Should you decide to look up this movie yourself, I must warn you, the soundtrack just might drive you to jab pencils into you ear.
Also known as Supers Stooges vs the Wonder Women.
