A classic adventure-horror film that blends archaeological intrigue with supernatural menace, driven by the curse of an ancient tomb and the pursuit of a reanimated mummy.

A couple of young, out-of-work archaeologists in Egypt discover evidence of the burial place of the ancient Egyptian princess Ananka. After receiving funding from an eccentric magician and his beautiful daughter, they set out into the desert only to be terrorized by a sinister high priest and the living mummy Kharis who are the guardians of Ananka’s tomb.
