In times of olde, God gave mankind the ten commandments, and a message that has been lost to the centuries.

Spriggan is another movie that focuses on finding a rare treasure and such, with plenty of action and excitement. If you liked Crystal Triangle, you'll probably fall in love with Spriggan, as it's much better comparitively.
Rar
Archeology is a dangerous buisness, especially when god gets involved. Make sure you've got some pretty special abilities, and a bunch of equally talented compainions before digging around for relics which the fate of the world rests upon. Also be prepared for equally outlandish oposition, generally bent on world domination. If you don't learn these lessons from Spriggan and Crystal Triangle, stay at home. Where it's safe.

If, for some reason, you actually enjoyed Crystal Triangle, try out something that's just as ridiculous as far as story, but is utterly hilarious because it's so bad. Psychic Wars is definitely for you.

Granted, I didn't really enjoy either of these. Regardless, both were very Indiana Jones-like with action and intrigue to be found with strange ruins and objects... so if you liked one, you might as well try out the other!

Crystal Triangle and Black Lion are so hilariously bad that they are awesome. Though, Crystal Triangle isn't nearly as PURE AWESOME or laugh-inducing as Black Lion by any means. Both have a combination of historical events and utter nonsense (such as aliens, demons, technology) that have absolutely no place in the story. Just don't take either of these seriously and you'll be in for a wild ride.

Ai City

Ai City main image

In a dystopic and futuristic Tokyo, humanity’s genetic code has gone awry. At the forefront of the technology is Fraud, an organization conducting experiments on people such as Kei and Ai – two escaped “headmeters” with hefty psychokinetic powers. The sinister Mr. Lee wants nothing more to retrieve Ai back to his clutches, as she seemingly holds the key to immense power; Kei wants simply to keep Ai safe; and the evil Lai Lo Ching has his own master plan. Along with the help of the amnesiac headmeter K2 and a trusty sidekick, Kei must fight to protect Ai from the evils of Mr. Lee, Lai Lo Ching, and the state of the world itself!

Crystal Triangle is flat out bad in every way. Ai City, though made around the same time period, is better - darker, more interesting, and a bit more humor. However, it still is cheesy, has ridiculous monsters, etc. If you liked CT, check out Ai City.
