S3: Dawn of the Mummy

Frank Agrama gives us what we've all been waiting for...the most violent Mummy film ever.
As an ancient Egyptian bully boy gets all cursed up to ward off the futures robbers little did he know that it would be a bunch of fashion models that would bring him back. So on with the rising and killing....rising and killing...riiiiising and killing.

heh great love these, though you forgot to mention, unless I missed it with constantly having to reload due to bloopers on my part, what was the reasons for it being on the list? Is it another case of other reaction?

[lampyman101]

@wolfwing1 As with the nasties it's one of those things that the reason isn't always known. It is a very violent film in places but not offensively so in my opinion. Chances are someone took offence to it and it became known for that reason resulting in it making it onto the supplementary list

one thing i always thought that was kind of cool about this movie is the fact that shuki levi did the musical score for this film , shuki levi for those not in the scored many cartoons from the 80s and 90s like he man, inspector gadget. power rangers, jacey and the wheel warriors, MASK , Ulysses 31, and many many more he is a legend in is own right

@zachthezombie very cool aint it, I forgot to mention it which is a bit annoying

[DarkAngel182]

I liked "Dawn of the Mummy", it's most definitely a guilty pleasure of mine!

[lampyman101]

@DarkAngel182 It's a lot of fun. bad but in the right way

A new S3 video makes my day a little brighter. Yay.

I was somehow surprised by the film's humor when I saw it. And I couldn't help looking at the main-actor as Leslie Nielson's secret son. Despite its crappyness it looked quite good in parts. It felt like being done by too many cooks.

Directed by Frank Agrama, the "genius" behind that cinematic classic Queen Kong.

Lampy, what happens when exploitative cheese and intelligence meet

[DarkAngel182]
