| A
full-scale re-imagining of Universal Pictures' 1932 horror film, THE MUMMY
is a rousing and suspenseful epic of treasure-seeking explorers on an expedition
in the Sahara Desert in 1925. Stumbling upon an ancient tomb, the hunters
unwittingly set loose a 3,000-year-old legacy of terror, which is embodied
in the vengeful reincarnation of an Egyptian priest who had been sentenced
to an eternity as one of the living dead. Starring Brendan Fraser ("GEORGE
OF THE JUNGLE"), Rachel Weisz ("SWEPT FROM THE SEA") and John Hannah ("Sliding
Doors"), the film was written and directed by Stephen Sommers ("RUDYARD
KIPLING'S THE JUNGLE BOOK," "THE ADVENTURES OF HUCK FINN"). Industrial Light
& Magic produced the ground-breaking visual effects |
