Case File 060: The Mummy (1999)
from Rogues Gallery
Throughout the 80s and 90s, a lot of top-tier genre filmmakers took a crack at developing a modern update of The Mummy. In the end, it was writer/director Stephen Sommers who landed the gig by reimagining the story as a family-friendly Indiana Jones-esque adventure as opposed to a more straightforward horror film. In this episode, we examine the earlier iterations that were considered, why Universal Pictures ultimately went with this version, the franchise that it spawned, and how we feel about the film two decades later.
