Great action & adventure, and cool special effects

Rating: 10/10 (15 May 1999)

Although this is not of the genre of the old "atmospheric" monster movies, ie The Mummy series, Dracula, The Wolfman, it is one of the better efforts I have seen from today's "idea" of horror flicks. Most of the monsters these days look so cheesy, it's laughable, and they make up for it, with blood and gore. The scarabs, the mummy himself, plus all those horrid mummy servants of his, were a joy to watch. I've seen it 3 times, and I still jump at certain points of the movie. This is one I will have in my video library.
