(1944) Directed by Robert Siodmak. Maria Montez, Jon Hall, Sabu. (70 min.)

Can Tollea impersonate her evil twin, High Priestess Naja, and perform the sexy Cobra Dance? What more do you need to know about this Technicolor camp classic? “Among the exotic treats: a rumbling volcano, a pet chimp, ominous gong sounds, forest-glade love scenes, human sacrifices, Naja’s handmaidens in their high-heeled pumps, her imperious writhing during what is supposed to be a demonic dance” (Pauline Kael).

Watch the trailer.
