King Midas - DVD

In the not too distant future, two drifters (Zac Efron, Anthony Hayes) traveling through the desert stumble across the biggest gold nugget ever found and the dream of immense wealth and greed takes hold. They hatch a plan to excavate their bounty with one man leaving to secure the necessary tools. The other man remains and must endure harsh desert elements, ravenous wild dogs, and mysterious intruders, while battling the sinking suspicion that he has been abandoned to his own fate.

A British explorer disappears in the jungles of Africa while on a quest to find King Solomon's Mine, a fabled diamond cache. Local guide Umbopa (Paul Robeson) leads the subsequent search party, albeit with his own agenda. But will they be spared from angry tribesman threatening to revolt, and an evil witch doctor? Adapted from Sir H. Rider Haggard's novel of the same name, this was the first English adventure tale set in Africa, and considered the catalyst for the "Lost World" literary genre that blossomed thereafter.
