"Revenge of the Gods" is an engaging episode of this series supported by a great work of edition with the use of footages of "The 300 Spartans" and 1956 "Helen of Troy". The greatest flaws are the language, since Tony and Doug speaks English only, and the use of the Roman names of the gods instead of their Greek names. However, despite these inconsistencies, this entertaining episode is still one of the best of The Time Tunnel. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "O Túnel do Tempo" ("The Time Tunnel")
