As a child of the early 1980’s, few films sparked my imagination the way Clash of the Titans (1981) did.

I’m a big fan of historical horror. This obsession likely started when I was a kid and first saw Heavy Metal (1981). My favorite segment involved the Pacific Pearl‘s B-17 bomber crew getting overrun by undead soldiers, reanimated by the mysterious Loc-Nar. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise …
