 The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad
Back in 1958 The 7th Voyage of Sinbad became the sleeper hit of that year with a mere $650,000 budget, the film has become a cult favorite and thru the years its popularity and influence on special effects artist, film directors, producers and legions of fans cannot be mistaken.
Sinbad is forced to create a crew of misfits from the Caliphs (Alec Mango) prison yard and return to the island with this crew along with Sokurah.
The 7th Voyage of Sinbad has some of Ray harryhausen's best work with such memorable creatures as the Cyclopes, the Dragon and that very memorable fight with the living Skeleton which seems to be a prelude to the seven skeletons seen in Jason and the Argonauts a few years later.

 DVD Times: Region 2 Reviews: Seventh Voyage of Sinbad   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
The problem, never solved in these films, is that it's difficult to believe in a mythic world when the actors keep bringing you back to earth everytime they open their mouths.
However, he gains points for his ability to look as if there is something standing in front of him when acting in scenes where the models were added later, and his swordfighting is excellent in the final confrontation with the skeleton.
Now, the Dynamation featurette and the interview about "Sinbad" are very good, and it's nice to see trailers for "Seventh Voyage", "Golden Voyage" and "Jason".

 The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad - Buy the DVD - download free movie review.
Sinbad (Kerwin Mathews) hires a crew of mutiny-minded convicts and sets sail, Sokurah in tow, but runs afoul of a fire-breathing dragon, a very ticked off Cyclops, and an equally crabby two-headed mutant Roc.
This swashbuckling adventure was the first installment of the Sinbad films, and decades later it still has the power to hold viewers spellbound.
Seventh Voyage not only set the stage for further Sinbad adventures, but was a landmark film in the fantasy genre, opening doors for sword-and-sandal Hercules epics and countless other excursions.

 THE SEVENTH VOYAGE OF SINBAD - BEHIND THE SCENES
THE 7TH VOYAGE OF SINBAD was Ray Harryhausen's and Charles Schneer's most ambitious project to date.
He would later comment that 7TH VOYAGE was an "in-between cost" movie, in that it's budget would not be low enough to take a gamble on and the possibility that it was to costly to return a profit.
As Sinbad and Crew arrive on the island of Colossa, The Cyclops is pursuing Sokurah.

 Savant Review: The 7th Voyage of Sinbad; The Golden Voyage of Sinbad
The episodic a-new-monster-every-ten-minutes formula is here held together by a solid plot hook, Sinbad's quest to restore the shrunken Princess Parisa to her full height.
She unbolts the latch and tells her fiancee he can come out, whereupon Sinbad pops the cage lid up like a flapjack -- every time, most of the audience got the idea that Parisa should have been launched into the air, to splat on some rock somewhere.
The 7th Voyage of Sinbad on DVD is an excellent show.

For the first time Harryhausen ventures into the realm of myth and legend (his previous films were the modern-day giant monster variety), resuscitating the Sinbad adventure, long thought to be box-office poison.
Sinbad fends off the cyclops, but only with help from the lamp's genie are they able to escape.
The rest of the film is an assault of the visually fantastic: Sinbad and his crew battle a baby roc and its giant mother, another cyclops, a fire-breathing dragon, and in the most memorable scene of all, Sinbad has a thrilling sword fight with a living skeleton.

The 3 Worlds of Gulliver is minor and Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger is a step down from the other two Sinbad films (though still with some good moments).
Eye of the Tiger, on the other hand, is of "so bad its good"/MST3000 caliber--with the Duke's son, Patrick Wayne as So-bad--I mean, Sinbad--and chanteuse Margaret Whiting in her first (and last) dramatic role as the evil sorceress.
