Viewing Notes

Kind of a weird follow up to the original film. It starts with an extensive recap of the previous movie and picks up where it left off. This one has a lot of comedy in it. The female lead is very chaste in this compared to Johann in the first film.

The face of the mummy in this one is pretty damn terrifying! I think it’s the black eyes that do it.
