Even in her glasses wearing geek mode Kathy Ireland is very easy on the eyes but her acting is not easy to watch. Most of the actors in the film either take it way over the top (beyond "campy fun") or act slightly embarrassed at being there. The effects and soundtrack are nothing special and fairly low budget. The plot line REALLY stretches ones ability to suspend disbelief. Catch this one to laugh at if it comes on a premium movie channel or network Saturday afternoon TV, but DO NOT waist money on this thing.

One worthy mention for trivia purposes is that one of the underground mobsters is played by Deep Roy. Deep is now famous for playing (and doing it well) all the Oompa Loompas in Burton's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."

Wanda Saknussemm (Kathy Ireland) is a nerd in L.A. Her surfer boyfriend dumps her. Her archaeologist father is reported dead. She goes to North Africa to his resident where she finds a secret path leading to an Earth shattering discovery.

Wow! That can't be her voice. I guess she's trying to act 'nerdy' but it comes off as annoying. She's also trying to be homely with no hope in hell of achieving that. It's all hopeless. Kathy is no actress. The production looks bad. The film quality looks bad. The story is stupid. Here's its saving grace. Kathy seems like a nice girl and a try-hard. She's probably trying her best and she's willing to look stupid doing it. One hopes the best for her but she has no chance even if she has any skills. It's all very bad.
