Sphinx bristles with peril and shines with the eye-dazzling landmarks of ancient Egypt -- as well as a close up look at the lavish treasures of Tutankhamen, filmed with special permission. A determined young anthropologist (Down) has come across a clue leading to a long-forgotten royal tomb. And pays no mind to the notion that Egypt's last undiscovered treasure may carry a curse -- and perhaps that there may be some black marketeers eager to sustain the illusion of such a curse... in a fashion as terrifying as any scary ancient legend.
