Part of Midnight Movies
Deep in the Egyptian desert, adventurer Rick O’Connell (Brendan Fraser) is enlisted by librarian Evelyn (Academy Award® winner Rachel Weisz) and a motley archeological crew to conquer the curse of the living dead — the vengeful reincarnation of the Egyptian priest Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo). Combining the thrills of a rousing adventure with the suspense of the legendary 1932 horror classic, THE MUMMY is a true nonstop action epic, filled with dazzling (if dated) visual effects, top-notch acting and superb storytelling. This iconic slice of late ‘90s blockbuster extravagance was a career-defining moment for its star (one of this year’s Best Actor nominees), and is a key stopover on the path of the current Brenaissance.
