bkoganbing Three kids, Mario Yedidia, Adam Wylie, and Clara Bryant all of them into those monster/horror classics are spying on an eccentric neighbor played by Ed Lauter. They've heard all kinds of neighborhood rumors about how this guy just might not be quite human. But he's human enough to scare them off his place. But not before they discover an ancient Egyptian sarcophagus in his basement and the kids accidentally reanimate the mummy inside. After that the silliness kicks into high gear.And basically that sums it up for Under Wraps. This is obviously for a kid's G rated audience, but I'm not sure about what age people will think this funny instead of silly. The kids have an alleged adult as an accomplice in their adventure, Ken Hudson Campbell who runs one of those science fiction/horror type specialty stores. But he just looks foolish running around with the juveniles.Bill Faggerbakke plays the mummy and he's got a girlfriend mummy who was his sweetheart those thousands of years ago in ancient Egypt. He'd like to be reunited with her. Of course you'll remember this in a more serious vein as the plot of the original The Mummy film classic with Boris Karloff.This one doesn't come anywhere near, but it should give you an idea of what to expect.
charbud85 This kid flick was shot in my hometown of Chico Ca. When my mom had heard that a Disney movie would be filming in Chico, she immediately signed her and myself up as extras. I just have a small part at the school scene, but it was fun nonetheless. And, we were both paid for our services! It was fun, and I'd do it again! The movie turned out to be okay, (as far as kiddie Disney movies go). I've only seen it twice, if that, but it's fun to see parts of Chico on film, (even though the original Robin Hood was shot around here as well). I hope Chico can still be considered a market, even for small and low budget films. Its's a beautiful town!
Christopher Hewitt I don't really know how to tell you how interesting this movie is, so I'll just lay out a few of the facts. The setting in "Under Wraps" is realistic. The characters' friendships were truthful. And this was funny. I especially like Clara Bryant, the actress who played Amy. She is very funny and a good performer. She also stars in "Tru Confessions" that came out in April. This has a Halloween kick to it and a realistic feeling to it. All the people in my family like it, so I think that everyone should see it around Halloween. It can be sad in some spots, and with great music, you got yourself a movie!
Flyer-6 This is a very entertaining movie about 3 sub-teenagers who encounter a mummy who has been awoken from its sleep and must be returned to the crypt before midnight Halloween. The "horror" content is about nil and the movie is suitable for viewers of all ages (I believe it is "G" rated). The mummy's encounters with people in the world are very entertaining, and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. It reminded me a lot of "Harry and the Hendersons".
