This is another episode in the low-budget exploits of Chandu the Magician as White Magic fights Black Magic. Chandu (Bela Lugosi) sets out to rescue the Egyptian Princess who is on the verge of being sacrificed by the cult of Ubasti. This feature-length film from a 12-episode serial is one of several popular in this time frame–so bad that they are actually fun to watch.
