About the movie ...

The Cold War comes to Marshall College. Due to Professor Jones' recent activities -- escaping from Soviet agents on a remote airfield -- the government wants him fired. On his way out of town, he hooks up with "Mutt" Williams who offers him an interesting proposition: to search for the Crystal Skull of Akator. As they head to Peru, they discover they aren't alone in their quest.
