Yikes!! What could Basil Rathbone ("Lodac") have been thinking when he agreed to do this sorcery piffle? Estelle Winwood ("Sybil") is straight out of "Bewitched" and Gary Lockwood ("George") is hopeless in this amalgam of St. George and the Dragon meets Arabian Nights. The script is cheesy and clichéd and the visual effects are magically cheap and cheerful. It speaks volumes for Rathbone that I stuck with this til the ridiculously camp ending as "George" and his six knights set off to rescue the princess from the evil wizard; but I did - and I suppose you should too - especially if you are under 10 years old.
