Title: Tame mummy movie but Valerie makes it worthwhile
Review: Looking over all the reviews on this film, I expected it be great but found it to be very tame and somewhat disappointing.There were hardly any scares, the death scenes were tame, and the gore was very, very unrealistic. I wasn't too surprised that this was the last Hammer movie made. There have been better movies using the whole reincarnation mummy /egyptian thing but this one doesn't quite pull it off.There is a lot of style though, a nice musical score, and a beautiful lead by Valerie Leon, but style doesn't mean much without content. Like someone said in a previous review, there is no real terror and no physical threat.The director also died before the film was finished, so there were a few problems with the production of the film.It's an ok horror movie if you like movies with a lot of style, but if you're really looking to get scared and seeking a bit more from this genre, you might seek another title.
Is the review positive or negative?
