Summary

This review of the failed 80s 3D Raiders of the Lost Ark rip-off Treasure of the Four Crowns serves as payment to Alice for services to TWIOAT. This movie has it all –magic, snakes, four crowns. The villain in this kids movie is a cult leader who looks suspiciously like Rasputin and the hero is some random 40-something dude who enlists the help of an alcoholic and a retired circus performer with a weak heart. It is BAFFLING how it didn’t perform better at the box office.
