The funny thing is that it genuinely looks like George Lucas just remade an obscure film and these guys have exposed him! Some of the clips are uncannily reminiscent of Raiders. I know Lucas based the film on old serials, but "totally ripped off" sounds more apt now!

Absolutely awesome spoof of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK. Especially liked the clips from SECRET OF THE INCAS and THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH which feature Heston geared up like Indiana Jones.
10/10.
