Harum Scarum (also released as Harem Holiday) is an American 1965 musical adventure comedy directed by Gene Nelson and starring Elvis Presley as Johnny Tyronne, a movie star and singer in a tour through the Middle East to promote his latest movie. Local bad guys are so impressed by Johnny's on-screen feats that they kidnap him and want him to assassinate the local king. Johnny escapes and makes his way back throughout numerous adventures together with a slave girl Shalimar who turned out to be a princess.


The following weapons were used in the film Harum Scarum:
