Just finished watching this. Four oil company employees exploring the North African desert for oil crash their plane in the desert. They find a panzer buried in the sand, dig it out, and get it running. They use the tank to battle a renegade beduin tribe as they make their way across the desert. Typical 1950s acting and special affects but still entertaining. Useless trivia: the name painted on the tank actually translates to "Iron Virgin." They use a mildly modified M24 Chaffee as the panzer. A remake using an actual panzer would be awesome. ![]() ![]() The Steel Lady. |
