question for the action/adventure movie gurus out there

One of the most famous scenes from the Indiana Jones movies is when Indie is using his whip and lots of cool moves to beat up a bunch of guys, when this big muscled dude comes up swinging two swords. Indie gives the guy a look and then shoots him with his pistle. I've always heard this scene was conceived by Ford, because he was too tired to shoot another action scene for the movie that day.

Now here's the thing. When I was a kid I think I remember seeing a similar movie with virtually the same scene in it. However I'm pretty sure it was done in the 70's. I can't remember the title.

Does anybody else remember this movie, or is my memory just scrambled

I had heard that Ford was having stomach problems when he changed the scene. Sorry I don't know the name of movie you are looking for.

The movie you are thinking of is called Seven. A low budget T&A actioner.
