 Rating:  - "Jerky, Good Work-y"Oh, how I loved these movies when they first arrived at local theaters. As a pre-teen, I watched them over and over. I watched them for the Cyclops, for the human skeletons coming up out of the earth, grown from planted teeth, for the dragons and monsters thrashing about. To see gigantic creatures pick up human beings and examine them for their possible tastiness--that was an amazing thing to be watching on celluloid!

The fight with the skeletons towards the end is really something to watch. Rating: - films of ray harryhausenMy grandson and my husband loved the movies, especially Jason and the Argonauts and the 7th Voyage of Sinbad. Rating: - Great MemoriesThese were great adventure movies when I was a kid. It was great to share them with a new generation of video-game kids who thought these were really fun to watch. The skeletons in Jason and the Argonauts are still some of the most entertaining of all. Great weekend viewing! |
