English Summary:
King Solomon's Mines is a 2004 American two-part television miniseries, the fifth film adaptation of the 1885 novel of the same name by Henry Rider Haggard. Starring Patrick Swayze as Allan Quartermain (it is spelled Allan Quartermain in the credits, unlike the book, which has Allan Quatermain) and Alison Doody as Elizabeth Maitland, the film was produced by Hallmark Entertainment, and originally aired June 6, 2004 on Hallmark Channel.
Elizabeth Maitland hires American safari hunter Allan Quartermain to find her father Sam Maitland, who has been kidnapped by the Kukuanas as he had drawn a map to the location of the legendary mines. The Russian Tsar was funding Sam's efforts to locate the mines, and sends pursuers after Quatermain and company.
The film begins with Sam Maitland writing a letter to his daughter and sending her a package. He is then captured by the Kukuanas.
Quartermain and McNabb are leading a European businessman on a Safari to hunt elephants. Quartermain seems reluctant to kill all the elephants, but the businessman insists, and McNabb has Quartermain tied up. The adult elephant is wounded but escapes, and Quartermain warns the businessman that it will now come after him. Later that night, the businessman is killed by the elephant, which then destroys the camp.
Hungarian Summary:
Allan Quatermain (Patrick Swayze) szafarivezető visszatér Angliába, hogy magához vegye a fiát. Hazaérve megtudja, hogy ehhez rengeteg pénzre van szüksége, ezért elvállalja a gyönyörű Elizabeth Maitland megbízását, akinek régész apját elrabolták Afrikában a benszülöttek. A szép hölgy birtokában van Salamon király legendás kincsének a térképe, melyre nemcsak a bennszülött törzsek, hanem az orosz cár is pályázik. Quatermain hűséges társaival elkíséri megbízóját és Good kapitányt az életveszélyes útra, ám már az út elején Elizabethet elrabolják.
Quatermain és társai kiszabadítják Elizabeth-et, ám nemsokkal azután, hogy kísérőjük nyomtalanul eltűnik, a kuakuániak fogságába esnek, akik senkinek sem kegyelmeznek. Umbopa váratlanul megjelenik és felfedi valódi kilétét: ő a kuakuániak jogos királya, aki élet-halál harcra hívja ki Twalát, a kincsre áhítozó kegyetlen trónbitorlót, hogy megmentse barátait és a felbecsülhetetlen kincset.
