Leofwine_draca More poorly-made rubbish from the cheapest straight-to-video director in the world, David DeCoteau. This repulsive, boring, terminally miserable movie has not one thing to recommend it; there is no plot, no script, no budget, no effects, no acting, no suspense, just a cheesy old-fashioned piece of horror film music which plays over and over again like this was a Universal classic or something.It's not, and in fact it's about as far as you can get from the classics. Bram Stoker's name is dragged through the mud once more, the film not being even remotely related to him, the re-titling nonsensical, a desperate attempt to attract more unsuspecting viewers. Not even Louis Gossett Jr. is around to save the day this time.The movie is filmed in one room without the lights on. The unattractive, mostly teenage cast are totally awful in their roles. The mummy is overweight, a lumbering, shambling piece of ludicrousness, a waste of time and effort. The gore is brief, shoddy, there is no drama or even any exploitation. Just a great big void of a movie. Give this one a miss. This time there really is nothing more to say.
MartinHafer This is a really stupid film. And, I normally wouldn't do this, but am going so far as to say that the writers (if there really were any) were also really dim--how else could you explain this dopey film?! The film abounds with obnoxiously unlikable college students who manage to make me root for the murderous mummy--simply so they will shut up! Often, these god-awful characters are much, much more annoying than Screech and the gang from "Saved By The Bell"--and that show was marketed mostly to junior high and some high school kids! In other words, while we might expect the "SBTB" cast to be dumb because they are playing teens, what is the excuse for these people for talking and acting like 12 year-olds?! Can the writing be any more broad and amateurish? Possibly...but it would take a lot of effort. In fact, I assume this was written by a 12 year-old who was trying desperately to seem adult and cool by adding cursing (not even good cursing--just crude language that makes the characters seem to have IQs of about 12) and a bit of sex...yet miserably fails.As for the plot, it involves an Aztec mummy who looks nothing like an Aztec mummy and an idiot idea of an idiot student actually turning out to be an Aztec priest...in 1999! And one-by-one, he has his newly revived mummy off these losers. I say more power to 'em--kill these horrible characters in this stinkeroo film! And, while you are at it, think about taking out the writers as well! Cheap, not particularly entertaining and dumb...it's the trifecta of bad film making.
tangentslayer 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!!!!
ianrthompson Don't bother with this film. I did and wish I didn't. I couldn't wait for it to end. It's unbelievable and just one of the worst films ever.I thought it would be at least entertaining but there was so much that could have been explored but was glossed over. The special effects were dire and the acting was wooden.This movie must have been made on a budget of less than $100. I can't see how the filmmakers could have spent any more on this.If your ambition is to see every mummy film ever made, then you'll probably watch it. If you want something scary for a night in, rent something else.
