Synopsis
Hera, Hercules' proverbial wicked stepmother, is determined to make Hercules' mortal life miserable. She is quite pleased when she learns that Hercules is having a hard time living with himself and seeks retribution for his youthful sins. Hercules visits the grumpy oracle Pythia, who sends him to King Eurystheus for guidance. The King assigns Hercules ten heroic Labors (tasks) to perform. Upon the successful completion of the Labors, Hercules will be granted immortality. This adventure takes Hercules and seven of his marvelously funny friends to the Island of Women Warriors to bring back the Belt of Princess Hippolyte, but the spear-thumping Amazon Women have been taught by Hera that no man can be trusted. When the entourage lands on the island, they are greeted with flower-bedecked weapons and taken prisoner. Princess Hippolyte soon discovers that Hercules is not there to conquer her tribe and releases the band to continue their journey, much to Hera's venomous disbelief.
 
This tongue-in-cheek story is a delightful and sophisticated dead-pan spoof of one chapter in the life of the wonderful Greek superhero, Hercules.
