A supernatural horror film centered on demonic possession and archaeological transgression, driven by visceral scares and paranoid dread rather than psychological depth.

An archaeologist opens an Egyptian tomb and accidently releases an evil spirit. His young daughter becomes possessed by the freed entity and, upon their arrival back in New York, the gory murders begin.
