Overview
Based loosely on the poem by Rudyard Kipling, this takes place in British India during the Thuggee uprising. Three fun loving sergeants are doing fine until one of them wants to get married and leave the service. The other two trick him into a final mission where they end up confronting the entire cult by themselves as the British Army is entering a trap.

bridgeWe had a good time watching this at the location that it was filmed, the “Alabama Hills” outside Lone Pine, Ca on 6-1-2015.

A couple days later when we were done camping, we went to the site of the hanging bridge and then on over to the temple site where there is a plaque commemorating when Douglas Fairbanks Jr revisited in 1992.temple
