Last night I stumbled across an enjoyable bit of sexy nonsense on TCM.
Watching the movie I noticed objects being catapulted towards the camera and lots of scenes which contained strategically placed furniture and other items dominating the foreground. ( not to mention many scantily dressed beautiful women placed to advantage)
The whole film seemed somewhat bizarre for a circa 1954 production.
I thought this has to have been shot with 3D in mind. But I certainly don't remember any references to indicate that.
After some quick research and acknowledging that it had been many years since I last saw it. I've discovered that it was indeed shot in 3D, ' FUTURE DIMENSION' no less.
It had a general release in most places in SUPERSCOPE.
It seems to have been left out of most 3D discussions here on the Forum.
But it now becomes near the top of my 3D want list.
The Film of course is "SON OF SINBAD" and I would love to have it on a 3D Blu-ray.
Bob, do you know anything about the condition and history of this Movie?
( My sincere apologies if this Film has been discussed before - certainly my memory ain't what it was )
