Captain Sindbad (note the spelling) is a 1963 film directed by Byron Haskin. It stars Guy Williams (Disney's Zorro) and Heidi Brühl.^[1]

Part of its plot is similar to the Russian legend of the evil Katschei. The villain, El Kerim, literally keeps his heart locked up in a chest inside a huge tower. Whoever wishes to kill him must climb that tower, overcome perils, and destroy the heart. Because of this, El Kerim is literally invulnerable to any person who does not know the secret of his heart.
