The Mummy (1932) by Universal Pictures starring Boris Karloff, hot off of Frankenstein, took a world that had already caught Egyptian fever when Tutankhamun was discovered in 1922 by storm. It was a massive box office success that spawned several sequels at Universal and inspired many more films from other studios such as Hammer films. Stephen Sommers remade that iconic film in 1999 with stars Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weise, and Arnold Vosloo reviving the iconic horror film into a modern action/adventure franchise that spawned two sequels and a spin-off series in the form of the Scorpion King. With a new Mummy film set for 2017 starring Tom Cruise, the Invaders wanted to raid the tomb of these two Mummy movies and see which Imhotep is immortal and which one will crumble to dust.
