Captain Sindbad

Captain Sindbad is a 1963 independently made fantasy adventure film, produced by Frank King and Herman King (King Brothers Productions), directed by Byron Haskin, that stars Guy Williams (Disney's Zorro and future Lost in Space star) and Heidi Brühl. The film was shot at the Bavaria Film studios in Germany and was distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The script was rewritten by Guy Endore, then rewritten again by co-producer Frank King a week before filming in order to reduce production expenses; the film was then reedited prior to release. Haskin also shot some of the film's special effects sequences for a television pilot of the film for MGM Television, but no network picked it up.
