Review – Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger

Though not Ray Harryhausen’s finest moment, this one’s got some good effects. I’m especially fond of the fire demons, which call to mind the famous skeletons from Jason and the Argonauts (though they’re too early in the movie and last too briefly on screen to have the same impact). I’m also fond of the Minoton (in fact, I’ve got a small one on my bookshelf). Beyond the effects, this is a fairly typical fantasy flick, notable only for juvenile antics. Still, the Dynamation as usual makes it all worthwhile. Mildly amusing
