Synopsis:
A Greek military hero named Darios (Rory Calhoun) visits his uncle in Rhodes in the year 280 BC. Rhodes has just finished constructing an enormous colossus of Apollo to guard its harbor and is planning an alliance with Phoenicia which would be hostile to Greece. Darios flirts with the beautiful Diala (Lea Massari), daughter of the statue's mastermind, while becoming involved with a group of rebels headed by Peliocles (Georges Marchal). These rebels seek to overthrow the tyrannical King Serse (Roberto Camardiel) as does Serse's evil second-in-command, Thar.
The rebels' revolt seems to fail, with Peliocles and his men being captured and forced to provide amusement in the local arena, but an earthquake eventually upsets, not only the Colossus in the harbor, but the balance of power in Rhodes as well.
