Wow, first film I’ve seen in HD, made it cooler than it already is. I remember watching this as a kid and to this day those damn bugs creep me out.
Rick O’Connell [Brendan Frasier] is an explorer who was captured in Hamunaptra, City of the Dead, while trying to explore the remains there. Evelyn, a librarian fascinated by ancient Egypt and whatever’s left of it, helps set him free and they start a journey back to Hamunaptra. They accidentally resurrect a mummy who brings with him the curse of death, the plagues of Egypt and much more evil. The mummy is trying to gain back human skin by killing and hopes to resurrect the love of his life and keep on churning chaos. It’s up to Rick and Evelyn to put a stop to all this but the mummy is behind their every move. They don’t even know what they can do to put him back in his crypt, or if it’s even possible.
The special effects are chilling, and add this creepy eerie feeling to the film. I wouldn’t consider it a horror movie without it. It’s a very entertaining film, full of one liner jokes and quirky characters. I don’t remember much about the other Mummy films, this one stuck on me even as a kid. Great adventure story and holds a form of “innocence.”
