But then news of Elizabeth Taylor was to star in a new super-production about the life of Cleopatra and Italian producers took notice. Since IL SEPOLCRO DEI RE was made first, producers / distributors made some modifications to the script and Debra Paget now became the daughter of Cleopatra. This newly dubbed version was released in 1963 in the US to capitalize on Taylor's CLEOPATRA (1963).
Aside from this tidbit of information, none of the titles match the original Italian title.
US / British version :
Hong Kong version :
THE TOMB OF THE PHARAOHS (there's a spelling mistake in the title)
French version :
THE VALLEY OF THE PHARAOHS
