In many space and fantasy movies there is a bit where the heroes go to some sort of exotic planet or country. Called something like Al-Khazakhtar.
They land in a bazaar with cliched Middle Eastern music, lads with turbans, someone leading a thing that looks like a camel. Snake charmers, shrouded women giving you side-eye.
