Aka: Hamunaptra
An English librarian called Evelyn Carnahan becomes interested in starting an archaeological dig at the ancient city of Hamunaptra. He gains the help of Rick O'Connell, after saving him from his death. What Evelyn, her brother Jonathan and Rick is unaware of if that another group of explorers are interested in the same dig. Unfortunatly for everyone, this group ends up unveiling a curse which has risen the dead High Priest Imhotep. Now 'The Mummy' is awake and it's going to take a lot more than guns to send him back from where he came from.
In the 1920s, a group of archaeologists led by adventurer Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) discovers the mummified body of Imhotep, an Egyptian priest who was cursed for falling in love with the Pharoah's mistress. When they accidentally resurrect him, the battle for survival begins, as the mummy begins to use his powers to reclaim his long-lost love. Director Stephen Sommers updates this classic Universal monster for the 1990s, using a dazzling array of computer-generated special effects. Fun performances from Fraser and Weisz add to the tongue-in-cheek Saturday matinee appeal.

The game was released earlier this month to negative reviews (you'll see a 72% rating but keep in mind that video games are ranked on a scale of 6 to 10 because that's how fucked game reviewing is), but Lionsgate doesn't care. The studio has won out on the convoluted rights issues we reported on back in February. Sean Daniel ( The Mummy ) and Stefan Sonnefeld will produce.
