“Oh he’s not a giggler. He’s a very serious boy”

The panel of peril stand back and admire their collection of Arnold Vosloo DVDs before popping The Mummy (Stephen Sommers, 1999) into their PS2.

Rick (Brendan Fraser), Evelyn (Rachel Weisz) and Jonathan (John Hannah) are on the hunt for the buried treasures of Hamunaptra but fail to take account of the dangers ahead. Ancient mummy Imhotep (played by our fave actor Arnold Vosloo) is roused from his slumber when the book of the dead is read from and he is cranky, let me tell you.

********PLOT SPOILER ALERT********

Imhotep’s grand plan is to resurrect his main squeeze Anck Su Namun (Patricia Velasquez) using said book and Evelyn as the vessel for her soul. Can our daring heroes stop the rampaging bandage boy, or will the world succumb to the ancient plagues of Egypt?

What did the heck panel think of this week’s movie? How in all that is holy can they improve upon the villain’s masterplan? And which evil schemer will be christened this week’s most diabolical? And which Arnold Vosloo film should we watch next?
