There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
I actually think some of these reviews provided for this movie are a tad harsh. You really get what you would expect from a low budget horror film with this one. If you're looking for a trashy horror that is full of hilarity based on the poor story line, bad choice of shooting locations and wooden acting then this is perfect. Watch with friends for an absolute laugh. If you're expecting anything decent then you definitely will be disappointed, there's no doubt about that. However, if you like to joke around regarding how bad a film can actually get this will provide an abundance of entertaining moments. I've certainly seen worse!
This truly god-awful excuse for a film really should never have been madeAs has been (quite rightfully) said before, there is not a tangible plot in sight, the acting is shoddy, the locations are laughable (the 'auditorium' in the 'remote compound' is quite clearly a conservatory - with the neighbour's house clearly in sight!!), the script is non-existent... this movie thoroughly deserves its bottom 100 position!I found this movie being sold for £1 in my local supermarket and thought it might be good for a laugh... I'm now off to demand my money back. I firmly believe that I could have done a better job making this movie myself - the acting, the direction, the writing, the cinematography (I know, what cinematography!?!?!) - I could have done them all betterAnd yes, the mummy is fat. 'Nuff said
I found this in the bargain bin at the local grocery store, and think that 2.95 was overpaying for this garbage.The film looks like it was filmed at somebody's home and none of the characters are likable. The Egyptian-looking Aztec mummy is fat and moves at the pace of an arthritic slug. The kid who supposedly is a direct descendant of ancient Aztec priests is fish-belly white, and the pronunciation of Aztec words is hideous. (Tlaloc, pronounced ta-lay-lock, instead of tla-lock) You will definitely walk away from this flick thinking "there go two hours of my life I'll never get back! )YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!
1st of all this film is called scream of the mummy, the mummy never screams, just makes a few gurgling noises.The acting is bad, I don't care about any of the people in it, I actually cheered when the annoying professor died.A large part of film seems to revolve around men in boxer shorts chatting."the last surviving priest" who can bring the mummy back looks like a 10 year old computer geek.The acting is the best part of the film.*as a side note this has absolutely nothing to do with the 1st mummy film, and Bram Stoker would probably be p1ssed off if he knew.
