TRIVIA

Director Sam Wanamaker was the father of Zoe Wanamaker, the talented British Actress who, most recently, has appeared in the Harry Potter films.

Sinbad's ship in the film is the same one used in The Golden Voyage of Sinbad. There's even a moment in The film where the figurehead is clearly visible.

The Trog model was dismantled so that the armature could be used for the Calibos puppet in Clash of the Titans.
