The Octopus Cult are the main antagonists of the 1983 James Bond movie, Octopussy. It is a criminal smuggling syndicate ran by the enigmatic Octavia Smythe, which is allied with the exiled Afghan prince Kamal Khan and unwittingly becomes a part of General Orlov's scheme to detonate a nuclear bomb at an United States Air Force base in West Germany. Kamal Khan was the hidden main antagonist in this movie and he calls all the shots in this organization and overthrowing Octavia Smythe role in this organization.

They operate under the cover of a traveling circus and are comprised out of exclusively woman, although they also have several other male associates; who they work with. They are based out of an island known as the "Floating Palace" in India.

History[]

The Octopus Cult presumably existed at sometime in the past before it was disbanded for unknown reasons. It was later revived by Octavia Smythe when she needed an organization for smuggling. Octavia provided refuge for several other woman in need of guidance, including several other woman that are not from India and taught them the ways of the trade. They at some point entered into a business partnership with Kamal Khan to run a jewel smuggling ring.

Their services were later enlisted by Kamal Khan to help him smuggle jewels for Soviet military leader General Orlov. But unbeknownst to them, Orlov and Kamal Khan were really using them as cover to smuggle a nuclear bomb into the west with plans to detonate it and sacrifice the cult in the process. The cult used their circus to smuggle the bomb until James Bond uncovered the plot and stopped the bomb from exploding just in time. The cult later assisted James in an attack on Kamal Khan's palace in order to get revenge on him for nearly killing them.

Trivia[]

  • The octopus that it's in the logo is a Blue-ringed octopus, known for being extremely dangerous to humans due to its powerful venom.
