Plot Summary

In the WWII, a platoon of German soldiers is attacked by the Allies in an oasis and only the British Commander survives. The Sheik and his daughter Aisha rescue him in the desert and bring him to their house, where he recovers. Years later, the survivor tells to the mercenary Kurt that the German troop was transporting a shipment of 6 million-dollar in gold and he informs the location of the treasure. However Kurt kills him and organizes an expedition to find the treasure. Meanwhile the student Robert Blabber reads notes of his father and discovers that there is a treasure hidden in the desert. Robert joins his friends and they travel to the desert to seek the gold. However, when they reach the location, they are attacked by an army of German living dead. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
