When I was ten years old I saw "The Mummy's Curse" in my hometown theater in New Jersey. It was a Saturday afternoon and during the 1940's every child in town attended the Saturday Afternoon Matinee.

Misty Mundae; Darian Caine

ei Independent Cinema, 2005

A ho-hum softcore film

This is a slightly disappointing entry from Seduction Cinema's lesbo-softcore-satire videos. The title alone is a brilliant satire of the much more pervasive pornography-poorly conceived Hollywood blockbusters like Tomb Raider and the wretched mummy movies-but the amount of actual girl-on-girl sex ...
  
  











  



  
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor [Blu-ray]

Is the Fraser Character an Idiot Savant?

+ CGI Kung-fu Mummy fun
+ Great Summer Popcorn Film Courtesy of Cohen, Fraser, etc.

Brendan Fraser in "The Mummy" is working on his portrayal of the serial who is bright-dumb with his kind of a ditsy, dazed, sexy look. He's a nimble cluck.
