Ray Harryhausen movies? It kind of has that vibe with the bizarre fantasy creatures. Even some of the story structure seems like those movies.

Yappee: "For country!"

Interesting take.

No, it’s not. You’re aware that Ray Harryhausen did not write movies. He did the stop-motion animation FX for movies. He did not write King Kong or The 7th Voyage of Sinbad or Clash of the Titans, nor did he direct them; ergo, they are not HIS movies.
