Title of a cruddy 1980s adventure film?

[Halb]

I wish to recall an Indiana Jones knock off from the early 80s. There were loads I know. The one I recall has some Indy knock-off and he is flying over a mountain, the mountain is in the shape of a Swastika, and he comments that Hitler would have gone nuts over it, or something.
Anyone help?

Sounds like it. Although, strictly, it wasn't a rip-off of Indiana Jones as such - it was a film adaptation of a book written in 1885 which kind of predates Indiana Jones a little.

I agree that the 1985 film adaptation was very much in the style of Indiana Jones though.

Starring Richard Chamberlin, the chap who also starred in Indiana Jones and the blonde from that American Show about women.

Um, I think Sharon Stone is more well known for something else.

I've got my Sharons' mixed up with my Kym's haven't I?

Soz you're both wrong. I am aware of Quatermain, I didn't think he was ever in an aeroplane, not sure how he would know aboot Hitler and Swastikas either?
Anyway I have seen the Chamberlain version and it is not that. There were loads of cheap Indy clones after Raiders. It must be one of them?

The "1985 action and adventure film loosely based on the novel King Solomon's Mines (1885) by H. Rider Haggard. This version of the story was a light, comedic take, deliberately referencing and parodying Indiana Jones (which actor Rhys-Davies appeared in two installments of the franchise)"

Thanks for that, but i was aware that he starred in King Solomons Mines, but B.J.W suggested he was in Indiana Jones, and i was curious as to which one
