Identify this Horror movie - help please! - Blu-ray Forum

doctorsteve · 02-16-2010, 03:42 PM

Many moons (late 70's/early 80's?) ago watching "A movie for a Sunday afternoon" - there was a horror movie... title was something like The crown of five jewels/four jewels, jewel in the crown, curse of the jewels... something like that.

Really cheesy, tried googling all title combinations. Years ago I DID find it again on the interweb, but can't find it now.

Plot was - this guy recruits the help of several individuals - one of which was a trapeze artist - to find a lost treasure of several jewels that had power. At the end, he

[Show spoiler]

Thought it was awesome as a kid, but when I found it on the interweb in the past, most people had agreed it was one of the worst movies ever, with huge plot holes, terribly filmed, and continuity errors galore.

Anybody got some ideas???

Thanks.

Doc

Yeah, I think this movie set a record for the number of 3D gags in it. Must have been one every 4-5 minutes.

I remember this film being released in Seattle as "COMIN AT YA!" to plug the 3-D novelty at the time.
It was horrendously bad btw!!

You know a thread like this made sticky would be quite good.. a 'What Is This Movie? Help!' thread.

Comin At Ya was a different movie, a 3D western.

What's that movie about a guy who's in prison for murdering someone and he ends up escaping while incriminating the warden?

I got a real puzzler I have been wondering about for years, sometimes I wonder if I just imagined it.

one particular scene in the film, is some kid/man, gets into a big tractor tyre, and rolls down a hill, but ends up going off a cliff, and at the bottom of the cliff is the ocean. I think there were some kids running after him but they didn't catch him in time. if anyone can solve that, they deserve a medal.

I too, saw Treasure Of The Four Crowns as a kid in 3D and thought it was amazing, I would be curious to see it again
