Fascinating Special Effects
I saw this movie when I was 5 years old and as a child was fascinated with the special effects and until today it is my favorite fantasy-adventure movie. The story is romantic and Andromeda(Judi Bowker) and Perseus (Harry Hamlin) are wonderful as lovers. The special effects are unique and it's all tied to the Greek mythology. Medusa's head of snakes, the sea monster, scorpions, vultures, statues that talk, sea monsters,etc. I always wondered how the special effects back in the early 80's were so good and so realistic and today with all the technology I don't see movies that are as well done. The movie is a great romance and the story is well written and I learned alot about Greek mythology from it.
