Steve Reeves leaves behind his Roman toga and puts on an Indian head wrap as the leader of a band of rebels fighting British colonialists. They kidnap the niece of the officer who has been killing natives and hope to blackmail him into surrender. They take a long trek through the jungle, pursued by British soldiers and overcoming many obstacles, including headhunters and elephants. They eventually reach a British fort which they takeover, leading to a final stand against the British. Long, talky and boring, characters are poorly drawn caricatures and the final battle scene just goes on and on and on.
