The Desert Hawk - DVD - $9.95
The Desert Hawk employed camels instead of horses and bedouins rather than cowboys, but remained a "Western" at heart. Gilbert Roland
played Kasim, the honorable Caliph of Abad who is kidnapped by his evil identical twin, Hasson (also Roland). Kasim manages to get away from
his captors and returns to the capital, where his brother now rules in his name. To regain the throne, the frustrated former Caliph assumes the
identity of The Desert Hawk, finding an ally along the way in Hasson's bride-to-be, Princess Azala (Mona Maris) . Well-known serial villain Frank
Lackteen, who hailed from Lebanon in the Middle East, played Faud, one of Hasson's henchmen - Columbia Pictures - 15 Chapters - Quality:
