On this New Movie Monday Griffey, Heath and Sam unearth another mummified horror in Lee Cronin's The Mummy. They discuss how the film feels more like an Evil Dead riff than a mummy movie, the film's wild and intense horror set pieces, and the use of family trauma as the anchor point for a more intimate kind of horror film.

Synopsis: The young daughter of a journalist disappears into the desert without a trace. Eight years later, the broken family is shocked when she is returned to them, as what should be a joyful reunion turns into a living nightmare.

Starring: Jack Reynor, Laia Costa, May Calamawy, Natalie Grace, Shylo Molina, Billie Roy, Veronica Falcon, Hayat Kamille

Directed by Lee Cronin
