Adventure/drama type. At the end of the movie there are people in a pyramid or something. They are in a room. A booby trap is tripped and they are trapped in it. The scene cuts to a block of rock that slides down a chute breaking bulbs off as it travels down. Sand pours out of the broken bulbs and begins to fill the room that the people are in. A couple of men sit down and accept their fate while a woman in the group acts excitedly. The film ends with the suggestion that the group are buried alive.

Yes that’s it. Thanks. I searched IMDB but always thought the people trapped in the tomb were modern age.
Thanks Mr. Unknown!
