    not quite a horror movie (i don't think)

    it's not a film i've ever seen but i remember back when i was knee-high (probably about '87-'88ish) some friends were on about a film they'd seen.

    it sounded a bit of an action-adventure film at the time where the main bad guy was some indestructable bloke and they had to kill him by taking his heart - which was a jewel of some sort. the guy may of been a Temple Of Doom type baddie, i'm not too sure tho, that maybe my mind adding bits

    that's all i can remember but i've always wondered what it was.

    cheers in advance

    also - they might of put a grenade into the heart cavity to actually kill him, again my mind's not too clear on that bit.

    Goddamn that does sound familiar...

    Need some more info to go on.. What was the main setting of the movie? Was it in a city, country, jungle, desert, etc? That could be a decent help there.

    What did the indestructible villain look like.. was he monstrous or did he look human? Was he a cyborg or mystical?

    i keep thinking that it's an Indiana Jones / Romancing The Stone type film (altho it could of been more actiony) the bad guy might of had a beard and/or turban and was quite big if i recall. there's not a lot more i can give you - we're talking a good lifetime of self-abuse since hearing my school friends saying how cool it was. also might have been dynamite not a grenade that kills him.

    also (i think) the mystical thing could be going the right way - altho i haven't seen the film myself i keep envisioning minions & chanting.

    that's what i keep thinking but it's definitely not. i keep thinking it must of been the equivalent of an Asylum version of Temple Of Doom.

    i might have it, i might not.

    just googled '80s temple of doom ripoff' and the first link is the wiki page for Firewalker ('86) with The Man himself Chuck Norris in it. wiki even describes it as "Firewalker was widely cited as a rip-off of many adventure films of that period, particularly the Indiana Jones films, Romancing the Stone and buddy pictures like Beverly Hills Cop and 48 Hrs."

    just flicked to the ending and it could be it - there's no heart scene like i described but the bad guy does burst into flames (altho he's more a indian shaman-type rather than an arabic vizier)

    i might have to watch it tomorrow to see if there is any heart-ripping-out scene or anything.

    I know you mentioned it being similar to Romancing the Stone, so I'm sure you've probably ruled out its sequel Jewel of the Nile out, right? I haven't seen the movie in years, so I dunno if there's anything you described in it, but I figured I'd bring it up anyway.

    Like, so many people out there were trying to track this down. And it just...got delivered on a tweet. What the hell.
