So he ? Summoned the portcullis to come down ? With magic ?

I don't think I'm following this movie all that well.

I think I have learned that if a Russian actor tries to sound Arabic, he produces something closer to a Scottish accent. Interesting… #Monsterdon

This movie starts with a colorful sailing ship sailing somewhere, with a captain named Sinbad. The ship is visited by a cool bat looking thing that the crew think is an albatross. Uh oh.

One of the crewman shoots it with an arrow causing it to drop the golden flat thing it was carrying. The crew want to throw it away because its evil. Sinbad picks it up and has a vision of a faceless woman doing a Spooky Sexy Dance, so he keeps it.

Launching my thread for "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad", a movie that has a boat in it so I'll probably like it.

Monsterdon is the thing where we watch an old monster movie each week and praise and or make fun of it. Mute the hash tag if that's not your jam, join us next week if that is your jam!

We've got ostentatious persian rug action going on... I kinda find the "arabic serifs" to be a nice touch. I kinda wonder when the musical interludes for the start of movies stopped being a thing?

By standing very still, Sinbad gets the fountain to give him a cool crown. But he decides being a king is lame and so he gives the crown to Sumerian King Guy, who is probably better at kinging anyway.

For some reason, when he does this it heals the guy's face and also makes his cool mask go away. Sumerian King Guy is like "Praise be to Allah".

I wonder if Sam Raimi saw this before or after he stole all of his ideas from Hausu

#monsterdon so Sinbad can walk around in the fountain and not get youth or shield of darkness? I'm unclear on the rules here

Good and Evil are both dead. True Neutral wins!
