Ray Harryhausen Double Feature!


 Two  fantasy movie that became a legends. Ray Harryhausen's classic JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS was originally released in 1963. This trailer, however, was assembled for the 1978 re-release of the movie. In fact, the music in the trailer is from Roy Budd's score for Harryhausen's 1977 film, SINBAD AND THE EYE OF THE TIGER. Bernard Herrmann composed the score for JASON.
Two Of My Absolute Favorites! 

This was a great film for its time. Ray Harryhausen at his best with the special effects and it's a great retelling of the famous epic story.


Added Bonus!

  1. Yeah! "Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger" is one of my favorite movies, too. I saw the movie again just last Sunday, but I prefer "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad".

  2. I love all of Ray's stuff equally actually. I saw this combo at a drive in back when they were released! Gad how exciting was that man! The screen, the car, a cook out, & Ray Harryhausen. It doesn't get any better then that!
    "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad" was awesome! There were so many good memories attached to that one as well!
