On the final Rad Revival House review of 2023, we time-warp back to Ancient Greece (or cinematically-speaking, the early 1960s) with the fantasy classic, JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS!
Join our host, the Professor Cesare Augusto, who analyzes this cinematic retelling of the mythological adventure where Jason (Todd Armstrong) recruits a band of warriors he christens the Argonauts, as they journey through the ends of the earth to recapture the mystical Golden Fleece. The film is famous for its vividly vintage stop-action motion special effects designed to breathe life in the mythological creatures that try to prevent Jason and his men from accomplishing their quest. The man behind the creatures was special effects maestro Ray Harryhausen, whose technical talents effectively thrill audiences from the film's debut in 1963, to today!
We at the Rad Revival House wish to thank all of our listeners, supporters, and fans for making 2023 one helluva of a great year to run our podcast. We look forward to finishing our first season into 2024 and continuing on with future reviews onward!
