Listed among "The 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made" in Golden Raspberry Award founder John Wilson's "The Official Razzie® Movie Guide."
Elvis was paid a $1,000,000 salary for the one and only time for this movie.
After reading the script, Col. Tom Parker thought the film was a comedy and suggested having a talking camel in the movie.
After seeing this film, a studio executive quipped: "Elvis' movies don't need titles; they could just be numbered!"
Upon hearing about the movie for the first time, Elvis loved the idea of his character as being somewhat of a sheik. He liked the character because he thought he resembled Rudolph Valentino. During filming in Los Angeles, he would wear the headpiece on his way home and even to the dinner table at his house in Bel-Air. Eventually, he grew tired of the film because his character was made to look like a fool.
