David Warbeck stars as Bob Jackson, an American soldier nwho teams with Captain David Franks (John Steiner) to find an ancient relic.
The relic is the Golden Cobra, and it is said to have supernatural powers. The movie opens with Jackson and Franks chasing a man who has stolen the golden cobra. Jackson ends up in a jungle and is almost killed by a savage tribe that is led by an white woman.
Flash forward and the two get back together to find the cobra at the request of several top government officials. They meet a man named Greenwater (Luciano Pigozzi) and his gorgeous neice Julie (Almanta Suska). The four of them try and find the legendary cobra, and there is a very good plot twist towards the end of this movie.
There is plenty of action and adventure and the film becomes more fun as it goes by, and the cast handles things very well. I don't know too much about Almanta Suska. She is a beautiful woman and has a dual role in this film, but she didn't have a very long film career.
If you enjoy Italian action films you might enjoy this. It was shot in the Philippines and in Rome and it has been called an Indiana Jones rip off, but who cares. It's good fun.
