Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

asinyne This is a decent horror flick. The special effects were very good and quite unusual. It was sorta the Mummy meets the Invisible Man for a large portion of the movie. The Mummy morphs from one form to another a number of times and it mostly worked. Lysette Anthony looked so darn cute, that little vixen. Christopher Lee was great as always, it would have been nice if he had gotten a few more scenes though. He looked cool too. The guy with the shaved head and tattoos stole a lot of the scenes. He was very good as a possessed maniac. The scene where they brought him back from the dead was pretty creepy, there are so scary moments in this flick unlike the Brendan Fraser Mummy movies, tho I generally liked them too. This movie is sort of a different take, an update on the more traditional Mummy films. I thought it was very unique and it kept me going despite the fact I thought it would probably be crappo based on how its rated here. It is very much better than its rating, overall the film has a lot of good ideas and it moves along well. I think most horror fans would get a couple of thrills from this epic. give it a try.

Nigel P Overshadowed by the wretched Steven Sommers comedies released only months afterwards, 'Talos the Mummy/Tale of the Mummy' is superbly directed, looks great, is competently acted and verges on the incomprehensible. It is such a shame because the idea offers something refreshingly new in the way the mummy intends to resurrect himself.Having had his organs intentionally removed, his victims are therefore stalked by malevolent wrappings as he pursues rebirth, wrappings that take on a stronger physical form each time we witness them.There's a wealth of familiar UK faces here. Lysette Anthony, Honor Blackman, Louise Lombard – mostly in underwritten parts. There's a cameo from actors Bill Treacher and Elizabeth Power. A few years earlier, they played characters in UK soap EastEnders who had an affair that scored very high ratings. It's difficult to imagine their brief inclusion in this film as (presumably) husband and wife is not unrelated to that notoriety. Edward Tudor-Pole, lead singer with the band Tenpole Tudor, also appears as a blind man.The CGI Talos towards the end disappoints, but his almost spiritual influence throughout the film is impressive, particularly when it concerns Brad (Sean Pertwee) who is subject to a kind of exorcism to expel the creature. The ending further jumbles the narrative, with seemingly half the cast taking it in turns to be host to the spirit of the mummy. A flawed, frustrating ending to an enjoyable but confusing film.

Coventry For some reason I cannot seem to comprehend, truly great mummy-movies are extremely rare. The only really brilliant mummy film is the one from 1932 starring Boris Karloff, but all the others go from decent (Hammer's "The Mummy", dated 1959) over mediocre ("The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb", dated 1964) to downright lousy ("Dawn of the Mummy", dated 1981). The absolute low point was Stephen Sommers boisterous reworking of "The Mummy" in 1999, but that film regretfully became a huge success due to the irritating computer effects. "Talos the Mummy" is slightly better than Sommer's film, but that really isn't saying much. This surely isn't a terrible mummy-flick, but a little more coherence and logic would have been welcome! The story starts out promising enough, with a guest appearance from the almighty Christopher Lee who's up until his neck in filthy wrappings, ominous amulets and mysterious tombs again! He and some other greedy archaeologists open the grave of the ancient prince Talos and hereby unleash an unspeakable evil upon the world. This atmospheric intro is unquestionably the best part of the entire movie and the quality-level goes straight down right after the credits. Besides, don't consider watching it exclusively to see Christopher Lee, as his share is very limited...The story then moves to present day, England, where the relics of Talos are exhibited in the fancy British Museum. Pretty soon, his "wrapping" escape and go on a killing spree in the streets of London. Talos' goal is to collect organs and body parts from foreigners, so that he can resurrect on the meteorological day when four planets are on one line...or something like that. Jason Scott Lee is the badly cast copper who has to protect princes-by-bloodline Louise Lombard from the extremely mean mummy... The whole legend and history behind the Talos character is quite interesting well thought out. He's a relentless and very malicious mummy and the aggressive murders he commits are fairly amusing. Too bad the film's structure is all messy and completely without tension. The computer-engineered special effects aren't very impressive, neither. The ending is truly horrible and swipes away that last bit of sympathy you still had for cast and crew. I could hardly even finish watching the finale....this has got to be one of the worst endings in horror-history. You've been warned...

pippolomeo my girlfriend and I were put into the cinema by a sudden rain, so decided to see a movie. For some reason, she decided to see this 6 years old mummy movie.How bad was the idea!The movie is horrible.. italian dubbing is convincing for some characters, and just at amateur-level for some others, and I don't think that the original version would have been much better.Most of actors surely didn't play their best performance here.The plot is that kind of story in which you always understand before what will happen in the next 5 minutes, except for the ending, which was the best part in my opinion (expcept for the ridiculous 5 last seconds).Effects are rather ridiculous in the first part, then they are good, but the floating toilet paper idea which should represent the mummy, though well realized, is still some toilet paper floating, in the end..Music was just absent during most of the movie, and decent in the end.I've seen the 88 minutes version, but I don't really think that the 120 minutes one would be better: there would be just 34 minutes more to laugh at, given that you want to laugh at an horror movie.Good to see if you are into a "let my girlfriend have some laughs at least" mood.Oh well.. just skip this one..
