Sinbaaaad!
Yes, that is Tom Baker aka The 4th Doctor as the villian in this Harryhausen movie. I love Harryhausen's movies, especially the Sinbad movies. I loved the monster battles. I remember always feeling sorry for the losing monster--because you can see its pain. Great work by Harryhausen
I think I'll be getting some of his movies on dvd since AMC & TCM doesn't play classic horror stuff that much anymore. It's a shame that Sci-Fi channel doesn't either. I wish they had a night of classic horror films like this or the original The Thing, or the Hammer films.
I wouldn't be surprised if there was another remake of these movies in the works --just hope Stephen Sommers isn't behind it. Hey Peter Jackson, you busy?
p.s. yes, Lori I am still behind on my review. Work is busy and my brain isn't in creative mode as much. But I am working on it.
p.p.s--News from home just in: My mom caused the fire extinguisher that was in my sister's kitchen to explode.

"My mom caused the fire extinguisher that was in my sister's kitchen to explode."-- let me guess, she caused it with her MIND!
Was little Billy Mumy anywhere nearby?
Heeheeheehee *hack!*

Pygar from Barbarella,Tom "Jelly Baby" Baker, and Caroline "Neverending 70's Breasts" Munroe...
What a cast from the past.
All they needed was Doug McClure and Christopher Lee and it would been the perfect 70's B-movie!

More on the story about the fire extinguisher:
They are remodeling the kitchen and storing things in boxes and it looks like Mom placed something heavy on the box that contained the extinguisher. The next thing was "Boom!"

Only Keegans have cool stories like that...locking each other in suitcases, running down family members with cars, detonating fire extinguishers in the kitchen. Makes everybody else's family look boring. ;)
RE: Tom Baker...man...I had no idea he ever had time to do anything else during the 70's except the show. Good for him, that crazy dude.

Good Lord, I can't deny that stuff. It's all true.
Now I'm laughing all over again especially the "car" incident , cause I was there with my dad in the car.
He's was going after my grandmom. We even made it onto the front lawn.
But let me say--no one was hurt! It's just that we go overboard with our pranks.
and I tried to shut the electronic garage door on my mom during her stay here last Thanksgiving.
Might as well add that to the list.
Again no one hurt!
