Dance to Hecate



Skip to 5:55 for the dance in the temple of Hecate.

Nancy Kovack (Medea) & cast in Jason and the Argonauts (1963).

This movie makes me a little sad, since the ending is Jason and Medea escaping Colchis together, with a very happily-ever-after feeling. Poor Jason, he has no idea what is in store for him.

Bonus! How can I post anything about this movie without posting the famous fight scene from the end, featuring an army of skeletons grown from the teeth of the hydra? I can't! This scene is amazing, and holds up against any CGI effects even 46 years later. Harryhausen is the master of stop motion.
