Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom
Starring: Harrison Ford
Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom
Set in 1935, a year before Raiders of the Lost Ark, the film opens with Indiana Jones in a Shanghai nightclub, attempting to trade the remains of the Chinese ruler Nurhaci to gangster Lao Che in exchange for a large diamond. When the deal goes bad and Indy's friend Wu Han is killed in the ensuing violence, Indy and the club's singer, Wilhelmina "Willie" Scott, escape the pursuing criminals in a car driven by a young boy named Short Round, an ally of Indy. They board a cargo plane, not knowing that it is owned by Lao Che. As Indy, Willie, and Short Round nap during the flight, the pilots dump the fuel and parachute out of the plane. Indy and the others use an inflatable emergency raft to descend safely from the plane before it crashes into a mountain.
After a dangerous ride down the Himalayan mountains and a raging river, the trio eventually come to a desolate village in India. The poor villagers there enlist their help in retrieving a sacred Shiva lingam stone, as well as the community's kidnapped children, from the evil forces of nearby Pankot Palace. During the journey to Pankot, Indy hypothesizes that the stone may be one of the fabled Sankara Stones.
Pankot seems normal enough at first, despite the grotesque food eaten by its guests. Indy meets the royal tenants and other guests, including Captain Blumburtt, an officer in the British Indian Army who is in the area with his troops on exercises. The residents are insulted by Indiana's questions about the villagers' claims, dismissing them outright. Later that night, however, Indy is attacked in his room by a would-be assassin, which leads him to seek and find a secret door. He, Willie, and Short Round make their way through the passage and discover a vast underground temple beneath Pankot, where the village rock and two others are held by the Thuggee, an evil cult who worship the goddess Kali with human sacrifice. The rocks are indeed three of the original five Sankara Stones; the Thuggee have enslaved the village's children to dig for the last two, lost within the mines of the palace. Mola Ram, the cult's villainous high priest, hopes to use the power of the five united stones to rule the world. During the revelation, the protagonists witness a gruesome sacrifice ritual in which Mola Ram bare-handedly digs a man's heart out of his chest. The man survives, his heart beating in Mola Ram's hand, until he is lowered slowly into a lava pit, causing the still-beating heart to burst into flame.
Indy, Willie, and Short Round are captured by the Thuggee and separated. Indy is forced to drink the "Blood of Kali," a mind-control potion which puts the drinker into a trance called the "Black Sleep of Kali Ma," and begins to serve Mola Ram. Willie is kept as a human sacrifice, while Short Round is put in the mines alongside the village children as a slave laborer. Soon, though, Short Round frees himself and escapes back into the temple, where Willie is about to be sacrificed to Kali. He burns Indy with a torch, shocking him out of the trance. Although Mola Ram escapes through a trap door, Indy and Short Round manage to save Willie, take the three Sankara Stones, and free the village children. In the fight to escape the palace, the three jump into a mine cart and are closely pursued by two Thuggee-filled carts.
Mola Ram and his men break the supports of a giant water reservoir, pouring the contents down the tunnels in an attempt to drown the three heroes. After Indy stops their mine cart, they avoid the rushing water by running outside, only to find themselves stuck on a narrow ledge at the top of a sheer canyon. They try to cross a rope bridge, but are soon boxed in with Mola Ram and the Thuggee approaching from both ends. Taking a desperate gamble, Indy utters a warning in Chinese to his friends to brace themselves. He then uses a sword to cut the bridge in half, sending many of the Thuggee plummeting into the crocodile-infested river below.
Mola Ram and a few of his minions manage to cling to the heroes' side of the bridge. As he and Indy fight over the stones, Indy invokes their magic; two of them fall into the river, followed by Mola Ram when he is unable to hold onto the third. The priest is promptly ripped apart and devoured by crocodiles. Thuggee reinforcements on the opposite side of the canyon, who have been trying to shoot the heroes down, are stopped by the timely arrival of Blumburtt and his Indian riflemen. Indy, Willie, and Short Round triumphantly return to the village with their sacred stone and the missing children.
