Sabu and the Magic Ring is a 1957 American adventure film directed by George Blair and starring Sabu, William Marshall, Daria Massey, John Doucette, Peter Mamakos and Vladimir Sokoloff.[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Dave Milton. It was originally conceived as a television series, but the project failed to gain a buyer and instead it was released as a feature film. It was produced and distributed by Allied Artists and was in the tradition of Arabian Nights films.[2]
Sabu, a stable boy in the Caliph's palace in Samarkand, discovers an old magic ring that grants wishes. In turn he tries to thwart a plot to overthrow and kill the Caliph.
