Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDespite being listed on posters and having main title billing, Ursula Andress only has one line in the entire film.
- GoofsAs the destruction of Argos begins, heavy winds blow the tunic of a man pulling a donkey on a rope to reveal a pair of modern-day gym shorts underneath.
- Crazy creditsIn the closing credits, the cast is divided into three categories: The Immortals (for the gods of Olympus), The Mortals (humans, etc.), and The Mythologicals (As Themselves) (In Alphabetical Order) Bubo, Charon, Dioskilos, Kraken, Medusa, Pegasus, Scorpions, Vulture. Those 8 are the non-human animated characters supplied by special effects.
- Alternate versionsThe UK cinema release was cut by the BBFC to secure an 'A' rating and removed the closeup shot of Calibos' trident-hand piercing a man's back, as well as shortening the prolonged shots of Calibos on his knees writhing in agony after a sword has been thrown into his stomach. The cuts were restored in all video/DVD releases and the certificate upgraded to a 15 (12 for the DVD).

Featured review
Before CGI, there were the talents of Harryhausen!
This film is one of the reasons for my being a student of the classical world! After being spoiled by the talents of Harryhausen, I just do not get excited about today's CGI effects... Not quite accurate portrayal of Perseus, but that just doesn't affect the enjoyment of this film. Fantastic film, fantastic cast!
