A pulpy 1930s adventure-horror built on exotic menace and world-domination schemes, where a sinister villain pursues ancient relics amid torture, murder, and racial anxieties.
The villainous Dr. Fu Manchu races against a team of Englishmen to find the tomb of Ghengis Khan, because he wants to use the relics to cause an uprising in the East to wipe out the white race.
