A master burglar is recruited by a wealthy collector to raid a mountaintop temple and steal the mythical Scepter of Gilgamesh.
For his follow-up to THE HUNTERS OF THE GOLDEN COBRA, director Antonio Margheriti puts a Bondian spin on Indiana Jonesploitation for an Italian/Turkish co-production of “undeniably great fun” (The EOFFTV Review), now in UHD for the first time ever in North America: David Warbeck (THE BEYOND) stars as a master burglar recruited by a wealthy collector (John Steiner of TENEBRE) to raid a mountaintop temple and steal the mythical Scepter of Gilgamesh. But first, this suave safecracker will have to survive car chases, kidnappings, elaborate traps and an ancient curse that promises to destroy anyone who dares to breach the golden tomb. Luciano Pigozzi (ALIEN FROM THE DEEP) co-stars in this “cult fanatics’ lost treasure” (Blood Brothers Films) co-written by Giovanni Simonelli (JUNGLE RAIDERS) and Giovanni Paolucci (SHOCKING DARK), newly scanned in 4K from the original camera negative with an hour of new and archival Special Features plus a Bonus Soundtrack CD.
