“The effects aren’t simply fascinating for their own sake — they genuinely convey a sense of the magical and otherworldly.”
— TimeOut
Set sail for adventure with this dazzling 1973 showcase of Ray Harryhausen’s stop-motion magic. Featuring Doctor Who himself, Tom Baker, as the evil Prince Koura!
“[Harryhausen’s work] is kind of like Frankenstein or Pinocchio. It’s taking an inanimate object and having it come to life […] That’s why I still like to do stop-motion projects because it’s just really exciting and it energizes not only you but the other artists working on it.”
— Tim Burton

This is a spectacular adventure set in mysterious ancient lands inhabited by incredible creatures! Sinbad (John Phillip Law), Prince of Baghdad and legendary sailor, finds an intriguing map and sets sail for the previously uncharted island of Lemuria with a beautiful slave girl, Margiana (Caroline Munro), and the Grand Vizier of the land of Marabia.
Prince Koura (Tom Baker), an evil wizard who is trying to gain control of malevolent spirits, follows in an effort to thwart Sinbad’s quest. Sinbad reaches Lemuria in spite of an enchantment Koura casts upon the giant figurehead of Sinbad’s ship, which brings it to life.
On Lemuria, Sinbad and his stalwart crew encounter a six-armed, sword-brandishing statue, a one-eyed centaur and a griffin. Finally, Sinbad confronts Koura in a face-to-face duel to the death!
