I love the King Solomon's movies and thought I would try this one knowing it would not be as good as the others. It was a terrible movie and a waste of 3 star actors. Dinasours in Africa and cheaply done. The worst part the dvd starts right off five minutes into the movie, no movie title or credits or start of the movie. When you get to the end of the movie and go through all the credits, the movie starts proper and you see the first 5 min. you missed. It was too expensive for the quality you were getting.

I recently made it through King Solomon's Treasure. While this film has a great cast who can all act, none of them managed to make it through this film unscathed. The film is a story of the search by Allan Quartermain for King Solomon's Treasure, which in this version is found in a supposedly Phoenetian style city somewhere in Africa. This is only the beginning of the far-fetched nonsense that we see throughout this film.

While there were some entertaining scenes, particularly the interplay between McCallum, Colicos and McNee, they were overshadowed by the giant monsters and other bad special effects (particularly a lot of watery mud that was supposed to be lava).

I have yet to understand where all these giant monsters - including a giant crab and dinosaurs - came from in what is supposed to be an 1800's period action adventure.

While Britt Eckland and David McCallum are particularly beautiful in some scenes, I discourage you from watching this film as you will be as bitterly disappointed as I was.
