Yes! I too thought something was missing., 26 January 2002

Lieutenant Saint-Avit is lured into the lost city of Atlantis buried beneath the Sahara desert and is seduced by Queen Antinea. He escapes with his life when he realizes all her lovers come to a tragic end.

G.W. Pabst's film version of Pierre Benoit novel features good photography, good use of real North African locations, and very good use of sound. Brigette (METROPOLIS) Helm is memorable as Antinea. However, I found myself confused as to what was going on. I, like another commentator in this forum, got the feeling something was missing. It could very well be. The video version I saw had a running time of 78 mins., the official running time listed here at IMDB is 87 mins. Is nine mins of footage missing?
