I really enjoyed this film as a kid - and that's because, like in so many of these Sinbad films, the visual effects from Ray Harryhausen are great and here Torin Thatcher's efforts as the malevolent and scheming "Sokurah" work really well too.

Only trouble being that the ingredients needed for the cure are of course on Colossa. So Sinbad and his men, and the dastardly magician, set sail for an adventure that is fraught with danger... Stop-motion maestro Ray Harryhausen, for his first film in colour, delves into the mythical legend of Sinbad The Sailor.
