Brand new factory sealed vhs tape is perfect for old school televisions as the full screen picture will fill your square frame. Has a really light endentation or horizontal score across the cover about 3" up from the bottom.

In 1920s Egypt, Legionaire Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser), despite the betrayal of his weaselly sidekick Beni (Kevin J. O'Connor) escapes certain death at the hands of Tuareg soldiers when they refuse to pursue him past a certain point in the fabled city of Hamunaptra, haunted by the spirit of Imhotep.

Meanwhile, our heroine Evelyn (Rachel Weisz) and reluctant hero Johnathan (David Hannah) share an interest in locating Hamunaptra and follow the latter's recently discovered lead, disregarding the protests of Evelyn's Egyptologist employer.

They soon learn that Rick can lead them to their goal, but they must first strike a bargain to save him from a hangman's noose--a bargain which naturally brings more company to the party. Several serial-thriller adventures later, the mummy of Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) is awakened, along with his intentions to resurrect Princess through the use of Evelyn's body.

But first he must reconstruct his own body at the expense of the explorers...who must also contend with acid-spraying booby-traps, flesh-eating scarab beetles, and the various plagues of Egypt in the meantime!

An undeniable success as a spectacle. Particular standouts include the appearance of Imhotep in the form of a sandstorm, as it attempts to pursue and consume a biplane in flight; and a rousing clash with a squadron of "soldier mummies" which makes no attempt to disguise its status as an hommage to 'Jason and the Argonauts' (1963).

The character of Rick is an obvious attempt to give us a new Indiana Jones, but Fraser is so naturally likable (and suited for the action) that it's easy to accept him on his own terms.

Writer/director Stephen Sommers promised well before the release of the film a family adventure with effects, laughs, and horror without explicit gore. He should be commended for delivering exactly that.
