Movie Description Set in 19th century India, a British officer goes undercover to get the goods on a cult whose members have ritually murdered and robbed thousands of travelers.
Synopsis Fact-based story of a 19th century, straight-laced British officer stationed in India, who risks dismissal, as well as death, when he decides to investigate an ancient, secret sect called Thuggee, who murder in the name of the Hindu goddess Kali, and is responsible for the massacre of his men. The sect may destroy him before he gathers the proof he needs.
Film Notes According to the research done on the film it took over 20 years to wipe out the cult of Thuggee. Rather than betray the cult itself, over 400 of its adherents put the noose around their own necks. Thuggee had claimed over 2 million victims.
Filmed on location in India.

Additional credits: Leon Falk (associate producer); Tony Woodcock (camera operator); Bob Taylor (sound engineer); Brian Smithies (special effects supervisor); Gordon Kay (chief makeup artist).

Industry Reviews "...The best elements are a meticulous evocation of period in an exotic locale and a sophisticated awareness and respect for the region's ways and customs....[A] beautiful looking film..." Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (09/09/1988)
