American Mummy

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. I dosed off 4 times within the first 30 minutes. Everything sucked in this movie, the acting, the story-line, the direction, the editing and even the 3D sucked.

1) Story-line = terrible 0/5 (very difficult to follow the story, continued to jump around not leading into the next screen)

2) Acting = terrible 0/5 (a Russian professor with the worst Russian accent ever just to name one)

3) Video = extremely bad (many of the shots were not considered for 3D presentation

4) 3D = sub-par (lots of ghosting over an high-send Sony active 3D display)

5) Audio = 1/5 (nothing to write home to mom about)

6) Flow of events = 0/5 (worst ever)

7) Editing = 0/5 (wonder if the editor graduated from high school)

8) Direction = 0/5 (director should be banished from the studio lots and forbidden to make any further movies, including documentaries.

Do yourself a favorite. Won't waste your valuable time on this crud.

Even fast forwarding at 4x, this moving is really bad and I have seen a lot of crappy horror movies. The acting is terrible, there isn't enough naked to distract you and there is no script to speak of. The only saving grace is characters get killed fairly quickly so you don't have to suffer through their bad acting all that long.

Right, well when I sat down to watch "American Mummy", I wasn't really expecting much given the title of the movie. But come on, at least give the audience a proper mummy.

This movie was bad, and the mummy was a mere backdrop around which this train wreck of a movie circled. Sure, the mummy was there, but it was hardly a real part of the story, much less was it the antagonist of the movie. It was simply just there.

I managed to endure through "American Mummy", but believe you me when I tell you that I wasn't particularly entertained by what transpired on the screen. So why finish watching it to the end? Well, because I was hoping that the movie would eventually pick up pace and become interesting. I just never happened.

The characters in the movie were mundane, and it should be said that the actors and actresses in the movie had very little to work with, and it reflected poorly on their performances.

"American Mummy" was a massive disappointment, especially because I was expecting something in the likes of a good old fashioned reanimated mummy coming to life type of movie. That was just not the case in "American Mummy".

Do yourself a favor, and stay well clear of this 2014 movie, because it quite frankly isn't worth the time, money or effort.

It's cheesy bad. Everyone once in a while my friends and I get together for a night of marathon cheesy bad movies and this one made the cut. Do not expect a great script or even decent acting. However, there is plenty of gore and it's a classic for perpetual bad decisions. If you are looking for something that'll make you jump when you least expect it, this one can deliver at a couple of spots. There are some attempts at comedy. I found myself wondering if they had fun making this movie or did they expect it to become a cult classic that would eventually launch them into convention fame? I doubt if we'll watch it again at a later date. This has the feel of a one-time viewing experience.

This film begins with a man by the name of "Philip" (Jack Grimmett) and two women "Carmen" (Esther Canata) and "Becca" (Jennifer June Ross) looking for an Aztec burial site in the desert of New Mexico. By chance, Philip sees an opening on the side of a hill and upon further investigation is brutally killed in the process. Hearing his screams, Becca runs to the cave and sees Philip's body lying next to what appears to be an ancient Aztec sarcophagus. The scene then shifts to 12 weeks later with both Carmen and Becca being joined by a research team led by "Professor Jensen" (Suziey Block) from Monroe University to study this mysterious object. What Professor Jensen doesn't realize, however, is that Carmen has advanced knowledge of what lies within the sarcophagus and is intent upon resurrecting it regardless of the price it will later demand. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this film started off reasonably well but after the first 20 minutes or so the lack of resources began to show and things went downhill rather quickly after that. Some scenes-especially those featuring "Jose" (Rudy Marquez) dancing around in cheap Aztec garb-were extremely amateurish. Likewise, the ending was equally ridiculous as well. That being said, I don't consider this to be a good movie by any means and I have rated it accordingly.
