| Help me out here...movie I saw when I was a kid...was it real or a dream? |
|
OK so there was this movie I saw as a kid when I turned on HBO once in the 80s. I musta been 8 or so.
It was something like an Indiana Jones type movie with a horror twist. A bunch of people were in a temple with a big statue and they had to turn these gems or levers. Every time they did a new trap came out and killed or endangered one or them.
It was just a brief flash...but I cannot remember the name of the movie...
Can anyone help me?

Just a guess. I can't remember if there is a scene like that or not.

It was about the same time the John Carpenter version of the Thing came out.

Rather forgettable movie, apparently - although it featured what at the time was one of the best 3D effect I had seen to date (with the falling leaves into the pit).

King Solomon's Mine
The Goonies (The tunnel network had traps)
Logans Run (Not a temple but an auditorium that killed those over 30.)
One of the Indiana Jones movies
Probably not the silent film, Temple, which meets your description.

| 11. Naw it was the rather B movie listed above. |
|
I love those big production movies you listed.
There was a reason why I could no recall it...it was really obscure!
THanks though!
