Movies like The Deceivers

Although more of a high-octane action-adventure, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom shares the exotic Indian setting and period touch with The Deceivers. With a combination of adventure, supernatural elements, and a deep dive into cult rituals, it's a film that will captivate audiences who are fascinated by the mystique of historical India.

Set in British East Africa, now Kenya, this film follows two engineers tasked with building a railway bridge but faced with deadly lion attacks. It shares the perilous, untamed wilderness theme with The Deceivers and will intrigue audiences fascinated by historical adventure tales set against the backdrop of the British Empire.

Adapted from E.M. Forster's novel, this film, like The Deceivers, explores themes of British colonialism in India and the cultural divide. A Passage to India's dramatic narrative and character depth will appeal to viewers interested in the nuanced portrayal of British-Indian relations during the Raj.
