Please bury this movie in a tomb

Rating: 2/10 (10 May 1999)

This movie is awful. Just plain awful. The acting is ludicrous. Which leads us to the disgracefull casting. Of course the best casting in the world couldn't save the script. The effects were nice, and had the potential to be horrifying. But this movie could never figure out what it wanted to be. Were they trying to take themselves seriously? In some parts, yes. In others, no. Was this supposed to be horror? adventure? camp/comedy?
Turns out, it was none of the above. Probably because the actors were not sure either. From the scooby-doo footprints on the ship to the "Thriller"-like mummy priests this movie reeked of camp. Except someone forgot to to tell the Mr. Frasier. The scenes go from Indiana Jones spoofs to Indiana Jones rip-offs in the blink of an eye.
If you liked Godzilla, you'll love this movie. If not- go rent Boris Karloff's mummy. Except for the effects, it is superior in every way.
