The Tomb of the Pharaoh (1960) (original) (raw)

Filmed in Italy. Features imaginative set design and fine production. Pharaoh Nemorat orders the assassination of the kings of Syria and marries Shila, their daughter. But Shila is in love with Resi, a young doctor from the court. Kefren, Nemorat's uncle, poisons him in an attempt to usurp power. On the brink of death, Nemorat, convinced that Shila is the author, orders her to be buried alive next to him. The US version moves this forward 2000+ years and changes it to Cleopatra�s daughter.
