The Giant of Marathon

This sword and sandal spectacle was directed by Jacques Tourneur of Val Lewton fame and featured cinematography by Italian horror master, Mario Bava. Reeves (who looks incredible) plays a courageous Greek hero whose muscle-bound heroics are the source of deadly frustration for the invading Persians. The final battle scene is very memorable with ships with jaws and underwater spearmen. Cool. Plenty of excitement and adventure in what is considered one of Reeves' best films.
