The action and adventure never stop in this thrill-packed sequel to King Solomon's Mines, starring George Montgomery and directed by Kurt Neumann (The Fly). Determined to succeed where his father failed, Harry Quartermain (Montgomery) convinces jungle guide Rick Cobb (David Farrar) to accompany him to Watusi country in search of King Solomon's mines. Coming across a village where natives have attacked a mission, they rescue sole survivor Erica Neuler (Taina Elg), who joins them on the quest. Continuing their grueling trek, the trio braves animal stampedes, fever and pygmy traps as they make their way to the fabled mines, where greater dangers await them. The final film directed by Kurt Neumann, Watusi was one of the first screenplays written by James Clavell, who would go on to co-write The Great Escape, direct To Sir, With Love and pen the best-selling novel Shogun.
