The Castle of Frankenstein fanzine, Summer 1973.

I thought this was an interesting read, full of old-school geekiness. I particularly liked the bit on Ray Harryhausen, who is one of my all-time favorite directors.

Ray Harryhausen Monster List

I have always been a big fan of Ray Harryhausen’s works. I saw a couple of the Sinbad movies in the theatres, and to this day can’t get enough of them. Even with all of the CGI effects, I don’t think there has ever been anything as amazing as his coreographed skeleton fights — whether in Jason and the Argonauts or in Sinbad.

In my recent web surfing, I stumbled across the Chinese Jet Pilot site, which has a page dedicated to Harryhausen’s monsters. They’re all listed, and each has a short video clip attached. It’s a neat site.
