When he wants to sell part of it in order to restore himself financially, he realizes that anyone interested in the treasure is mysteriously perishing. Now his journalistic ambition is aroused and he tries to get on the track of the secret. With the help of the seedy German antiques dealer Heinrich Holzmann, he discovered an alien spaceship in a cave next to a centuries-old ship.

criticism

"Badly played, moderately entertaining story in which too many elements from different genres (adventure, science fiction, horror film) have been packed."

“Franco Nero (“ Django's return ”) in a film for Däniken friends. The hair-raising mixture of action, adventure, science fiction and horror is not without lengths, but the viewer is offered so many surprises that he remains interested. "
