NOTES Like The Mummy (1932) with Boris Karloff and more recently

Raiders of the Lost Ark this film starts among Egyptian tombs.

The story is lightly borrowed from the 1932 film and the

ambience from Spielberg's epic. But isn't anything like either.

If it were played for laughs Fraser might just fit the bill. If you

want to see successful parody turn to the Indiana Jones films.

And Rachel Weisz isn't attractive enough in any respect.

One of the baddies has a disfigured face. Another baddie has a prosthetic arm, not a hand on the end but a knife.



The Mummy Returns (2001) The original was derivative and

boring and apparently this follow-up is derivative of itself and I

couldn't be bothered watching it. There is also The Mummy 3

in production.
