The Mummy
Directed by Stephen Sommers
Dashing legionnaire Rick O'Connell stumbles upon the hidden ruins of Hamunaptra while in the midst of a battle to claim the area in 1920s Egypt. It has been over three thousand years since former High Priest Imhotep suffered a fate worse than death as a punishment for a forbidden love—along with a curse that guarantees eternal doom upon the world if he is ever awoken.

neutral · AI labelView post →this movie is a great example of the Roger Ebert's Review of The Mummy phenomenon, where I cannot say any of this movie was particularly good except that i really really enjoyed watching it
positive · AI labelView post →Anyway in my opinion THE MUMMY (1999) is a pretty near perfect film, but one of the top ten perfect things in it for ME is that Imhotep initially grabs the eyeballs of a SEVERELY NEARSIGHTED GUY and that causes MULTIPLE ISSUES Like that's just... *chef's kiss* He's like "DANG IT"

neutral · AI labelView post →The Mummy (1932). The shimmering black and white cinematography of 30s studio films serves supernatural stories well, because it makes them appear even more dreamlike and like something seen in a witch's mirror. The film is moody, with an aching heart, and puts love as a source of death and rebirth.
positive · AI labelView post →The Mummy is a fantastic film.

neutral · AI labelView post →I haven’t seen Besson’s DRACULA, but it’s so wild how “Mina is the reincarnation of Dracula’s bride” has become part of the accepted lore. None of this is from the book; he’s directly pulling from Coppola’s 1992 film, which was cribbing from DARK SHADOWS (and maybe THE MUMMY), as was FRIGHT NIGHT 🤣

neutral · AI labelView post →A silly hill I shall die upon: Karl Freund's THE MUMMY (1932) is deeply underrated. It's not a "scare a minute" film, but almost more of a tone-poem about heartbreak. Freund somehow *got* that Karloff was a very gentle actor, and he plays into that. It's also *very* beautiful to watch.

Dull, dull, dull, and its only decent elements -- the stuff set in Egypt -- only make it more frustrating. www.patreon.com/posts/159135...
