Hercules Reborn is a 2014 sword-and-sandal action film produced by The Asylum, famously known as a "mockbuster" designed to cash in on Dwayne Johnson's big-budget Hercules movie. The film stars former WWE wrestler John Hennigan (also known as John Morrison) as a washed-up, exiled Hercules. [1, 2]
The story follows a young warrior named Arius, whose bride has been kidnapped by a power-hungry general who takes over their city. Arius travels to find Hercules in hopes of getting his help, only to discover the legendary demigod has been living as a pathetic, drunken outcast after accidentally killing his own family. Eventually, Arius's courage inspires Hercules to sober up, reclaim his honor, and help the rebels fight the tyrannical general. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Here are a few quick facts about the film:
Critics and audiences generally consider it a "B-movie," though some viewers found it to be an entertaining and surprisingly watchable alternative to bigger studio releases. [9]
