In short, whether or not it has something to do with the uncanny valley effect, the appearance of the mummy of High Priest Immorton on the front really caused the audience in the screening hall to exclaim.

And in the small storage room behind the screening room, the mummy ghost in front of Charlotte and Alexis also looks more and more real.

"What did you create this goblin for?"

Miss Valkyrie is still a little curious,

"Isn't it to explore the secrets of death, or to have something to do with the mysterious Lord of Hell?"

“......”

Charlotte stared at Alexis for a long time with a strange look, which made Miss Valkyrie a little awkward-

"What, am I wrong?"

"No, I wonder how you've become smart!"

"Hey—"

Alexis just wanted to reprimand Charlotte for her rudeness, but suddenly reacted-

"Does it really have something to do with that Hell Lord!?"

"You'll understand when the movie is over!"

After a little spoiler, Charlotte still chose to keep the rest of the story secret, which made Alexis's heart itch even more......

In the screening room, however, the audience had no time for curiosity.

They are completely enveloped by the tense and terrifying atmosphere of the movie.

- As a commercial popcorn movie, the audience could not be heard chewing popcorn in the screening room at this time.

From this point, you can see how engaged the audience is.

Now, on the big screen, O'Connor and his party have circled several times under the chase of corpse beetles, and finally found Evelyn who was trapped.

- I also saw the terrifying mummified image of the high priest Immorton by the way.

"Wow!!"

Whether it was O'Connor, Evelyn's brother Jonathan, and the group of American cowboys, they all screamed.

This made the audience in the screening room laugh.

"It's a bit of a contrast!"

Kenneth Turan smiled at the corner of his mouth.

As a professional film critic, Kenneth knows that in most horror films, it is the heroine who is responsible for screaming.

Charlotte's "The Mummy" does the opposite, and the heroine Evelyn, although she is still responsible for expressing fear, rarely makes a high-pitched cry.

Most of the time, Evelyn's fear is expressed through facial expressions.

- Although it requires more acting skills than screaming, it seems that Rachel Weisz is more than capable of doing it.

Even, with Rachel Weisz's own bookish air, Evelyn always has a cute feeling when she expresses that silent sense of fear.

On the contrary, it is the male characters in the film who often have to call twice to strengthen their courage.

- This kind of contrast is cute, which makes Kenneth Turan, an old driver who has read countless films, think it is very interesting.

However, the feeling of "interesting" can be imagined by the audience sitting in the screening room, and O'Connor in the movie is not in this mood.

- especially when the mummy screamed at a few of them.

Perhaps not to be outdone, or perhaps purely to embolden, O'Connor also yelled at the mummy with his mouth long, and fired a shot at the mummy with the rifle in his hand.

The mummy was shot far away, but it didn't seem to be dead, so O'Connor picked up Evelyn and escaped with the group.

After escaping some distance, they encountered a group of men in black.

- It was the same group of horse bandits who had attacked them a few times before.

"I said you would die if you didn't leave, but you just didn't listen!"

The man in black who took the lead looked serious,

"Now that you have unleashed a monster that has been sealed for more than 3,000 years, everyone is going to die!"

With that, the men in black handed over the doctor of archaeology from the American archaeological team they had rescued and the cowboy who had been mummified with his eyes and tongue robbed to the group, and left to find a way to stop the mummy.

Although O'Connor and the others were still skeptical, they also knew that they could not stay here for long, so they quickly left.

They didn't expect that Benny, who was originally invited by the Americans to lead the way, was blocked underground by a mummy.

Under the coercion and temptation of the mummy, Benny, who was already timid and forgetful, easily became the mummy's "leading party......

"However, it is really interesting that this Benny has so many amulets of various religions on him. ”

Emily thought to herself.

As a die-hard fan of Charlotte's films, she even found the style of the protective circle that once appeared in "Guillotine Valley" in Benny's amulet.

- This easter egg is funny to Emily.

But everyone in the movie doesn't feel "interesting" at all at this time-

After hurrying back to Cairo, O'Connor immediately wanted to pack his bags and take Evelyn out of the dangerous place of Egypt.

After all, although he didn't admit it, he also knew that the mummy was not something that ordinary weapons could kill.

There was nothing he could do about it.

But Evelyn didn't want to leave.

The girl, who has a somewhat nerdy temperament, feels that they have inadvertently released the mummy and is obligated to try to get rid of him again.

The two had a big fight over it.

O'Connor was furious, and Jonathan and the Americans who had fled back went downstairs to drink — and some were drinking cold Coca-Cola — only to find that all the drinks they had drunk had turned to the smell of blood.

Coupled with the blood-colored waters of the river and the rain of fire falling from the sky, O'Connor realized that the disaster was not over.

He finds Evelyn, only to discover that the mummy of High Priest Immorton has infiltrated Cairo and completely drained the life force of the cowboy who had taken his eyes and tongue, turning him into a dried corpse.

Mummies are at war with them, and weapons such as guns are completely useless. At the critical moment, it was the appearance of a cat that scared the mummy away.

"In many folklore, cats have psychic abilities, and it seems that a similar setting is referenced in this movie. ”

Downey whispered in Susan's ear, and Susan nodded.

- The idea of cat psychic is widely circulated in the Western world, and it is not difficult for Susan to understand.

She is more curious, now that this mummy has been portrayed as so powerful, how can the protagonists in the movie destroy him?

It turns out that a nerd like Evelyn, when he encounters a puzzled question, will naturally look for the answer in the book.

The group went to the museum to find the curator for answers.

As a result, they found that the curator was talking to the leader of the men in black who had attacked them and saved them.

It turns out that both the man in black and the curator belong to a mysterious organization that specializes in guarding the sealed High Priest Immorton.

The Man in Black tells them all about the incident, which makes them realize that if they want to save themselves, they must try to defeat Immorton.
