Antonio Margheritis Ark of the Sun God (1984), starring David Warbeck, is an Italian adventure-exploitation film about a master thief forced to steal a mystical artifact linked to Gilgamesh. Shot in Turkey and filled with booby traps, betrayals, and pulp thrills, it rides the wave of Indiana Jones-inspired Euro-adventures of the 1980s.

Who needs Indiana Jones when youve got Rick Spear? Ricks a master cracksman the best damn thief in the business and hes been hired to find the fabled burial chamber of King Gilgamesh and retrieve the valuables within. But hes not the only one on the treasure hunt: others have their eyes on the loot and theyll stop at nothing to get it...

A late-career highlight from Italian genre favourite Antonio Margheriti (The Long Hair of Death; Seven Deaths in the Cats Eye), with a characteristically charming performance from David Warbeck (The Beyond) as the dashing Rick, Ark of the Sun God tips its fedora at Raiders of the Lost Ark but adds its own wild invention into the mix. The tomb-raiders at 88 Films are proud to present the 4k UHD premiere of this fabulous slice of 80s adventure.
