    His work inspired me to well, hide behind the couch when I was a wee boy.

    A legend.

      And all by stop motion. The really sad thing is if that was a modern film, the audience would barely bat an eyelid: "It's just CGI" - yawn. But then it was "Wow! How did they do that!".
      Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

        Apparently his funeral is going to take 10 months to film.

          I still love his work to this day and often prefer what he did to the overworked CGI you get these days.

            I loved that stuff as a kid, as did my kids when they were, erm, kids.

            I think my favourite Ray Harryhausen character was Talos.

                  The misshapen stroke induced faces, the spasticated jerky movements and the terrible noise.But that's enough about Old Hack I'm going miss Rayhausens models.
