Review – Pharaoh’s Curse

Watching this movie was like volunteering for some kind of cruel sleep deprivation experiment. The story is sooooo boring that in fairly short order it started to put me out like a swig of NyQuil. But every time I started to nod off, some new bogey would spook the love interest and she’d go into a top-volume screeching fit. Or some equally pointless noise-making would occur. I wish if film-makers set about the task of putting me to sleep that they’d at least have the courtesy to not wake me up. To the extent that this production even had a story, it seemed to be about some archaeologists and soldiers defiling an ancient tomb and awakening its guardian mummy (a monster that from most angles looks like an old guy in a nightshirt). So at least if I’d managed to sleep through it I could have made it up later by watching any other mummy movie ever made. See if desperate
