β€œHercules in New York” with both Arnolds
  1:16pm
P-90:

Schwarzenegger’s lines were dubbed by an actor with crisp diction and an American accent. Because when the Roman demigod Hercules comes to New York, he should speak with an American accent. Apparently.
  1:18pm
TVP:

In recent years, they released both the dubbed version, as well as a version with the original audio, where Ah-nold's accent is thicker than usual. Both are fun in their own way.

I first heard "Honey Rock" on WFMU in 1989. I called the station and asked what album it was on. "Swing For A Crime," answered the DJ. Next day, went to Sounds on St. Marks and got it. A perennial favorite!

The quick, light β€œkarate chop” to the shoulder that caused instant unconsciousness was a common trope in the 60’s. Always worked on Man from UNCLE and countless others. Don’t try it in an actual street combat situation.
