"The curse is legend. The terror is real."
Centuries ago, under the sands of ancient Egypt, a Prince was buried and his tomb eternally cursed so that no man would ever again suffer from his evil ways. But hundreds of years later on a greedy search for treasure, a group of archaeologists break the cursed seal of the tomb. Every man vanishes without a trace, leaving behind only a log book, and a deadly warning of the legend of the bloodthirsty Talos.

Ok, straight to the point.... Why? What on earth was Russell Mulcahy thinking when he decided that this was ever going to work? Aside from an all too brief appearance from Christopher Lee (though easy enough to explain if he'd actually been sent the entire screenplay) the thing is an ensemble of some seriously C-rated British bit-part actors who support eye-candy Jason Scott Lee as the visiting detective "Riley" on a desperate mission to thwart a curse that will release "Talos" (a Greek bronze man, methinks - but, hey ho!) and bring devastation to all mankind. The special effects seem to consist of lots of bits of bandage blowing about in an attempt to create some semblance of peril, or menace - or maybe just a draft? The dialogue is just silly and what Honor Blackman is doing here is anyone's guess. Sorry this is just dross - and fans of mummy films (that's me, too) ought to consign this to a place where even the book of the dead can't help it.
