Don Chaffey directs this classic 1960s adventure starring Todd Armstrong and Douglas Wilmer. Two decades after the King of Thessaly was murdered by his infant son, Jason (Armstrong) returns to the kingdom to make his claim to the throne. In order to be proved the rightful king, however, Jason must find and retrieve the magical golden fleece. As he embarks on his quest with a loyal army in tow, Jason discovers quickly that his journey will not be simple. As they come across a 100-foot bronze giant, a venomous creature with seven heads and an army of skeletons seeking a battle, Jason and his crew must fight the hardest fight of their lives if they are to succeed in bringing home the golden fleece.

One of the most legendary adventures in all mythology is brought to life in Jason and the Argonauts, a thrilling tale of a young adventurer’s perilous quest to find the coveted Golden Fleece in a dazzling mixture of breath-taking special effects, beautiful locations and fascinating characters. It’s 2000 B.C. in Ancient Greece, and the city of Iolcus is under attack. Jason is only three years old when his father King Aeson is killed by his uncle, the evil tyrant Pelias (Dennis Hopper), who then claims the throne. Twenty years later, Jason (Jason London) is told of his past. It is time to fulfil his destiny and reclaim his father’s kingdom. But when Jason arrives back in Iolcus, Pelias quickly sentences him to death and will only spare his life if he brings back the coveted Golden Fleece, considered to be the greatest gift from the god’s to man. Jason builds a ship, the Argo, and together with his team of Argonauts, begins the treacherous journey to the island of Colchis. There, according to the blind prophet Phineas (Sir Derek Jacobi), an enchanting sorceress named Medea faithfully guards the fleece. Against impossible odds and overwhelming obstacles – including a terrifying sea giant the size of an island – deadly flying Harpies and an army of beautiful but murderous women ruled by Hypsipyle (Natasha Henstridge), Jason is determined to complete the mission….
