Death's Ferryman

From this silver-sanded shore,

Beckon him to row thee o'er;

Where yon solemn shadows be,

I shall wait thee -- come and see!

-- There! the white sails float and flow,

One in heaven and one below;

And I hear a low voice cry,

Ferryman of Death am I.

The Ferryman

There Charon stands, who rules the dreary coast –

A sordid god: down from his hairy chin

A length of beard descends, uncombed, unclean;

His eyes, like hollow furnaces on fire;

A girdle, foul with grease, binds his obscene attire.

The Ferryman

From the film Clash of the Titans.
Not well-received, but loaded with neat creature designs.

This guy was growing out of his ferry.
