Clash of The Titans


I have always had a fascination with ancient Greek mythology. In 1981, Clash of The Titans, a classic story of war between humans and gods, hit movie theatres. This version used a time-honoured form of special effects called stop-motion animation, which was pioneered in such films as Lost World (1925) and King Kong (1933).Ray Harryhausen, a master of this film technique, made extensive use of it in this film.
Unlike the 1981 version, the remake of this film, which comes to movie theatres this March, makes extensive use of CGI.
