The Mummy w/Johnny Compton

Well, Fermented Folks, we have a special one here for you today. In the official kickoff episode of our 4th season, we welcome back veteran guest and acclaimed author of Spite House and Devils Kill Devils, Johnny Compton, to debate one of the greatest (or perhaps worst) adventure-horror films of all time. That’s right, ya’ll. It’s time to get into The Mummy.If you’re like many of us on this show, this movie was created in peak nostalgia time to infect and inspire your young, creative mind. But even if you aren’t, this episode has something for you.We have a great guest. We have a fun movie to debate, and we hope you’ll risk the heat of the desert with us to search for the forgotten treasures of Hamunaptra. Let’s see if the dice gods bless us with such fortune... Fermented Fiction Rating (how many drinks/substances to enjoy this movie to the fullest): None required to enjoy, but A glass of bourbon with a shot of bourbon and a bourbon chaser is almost certain to enhance the experience. If you really want to go hard... consider taking a thick line of antiquity (IE: powdered mummy) straight to the dome. We don’t necessarily endorse or recommend this final option... Psssstttt.... have you read Johnny’s work and followed him on socials? Cause you can and totally should!
