Gerade durch damit. Definitiv einer der schlechtesten Filme die ich je gesehn hab... Es is ein Zweiteiler, wovon der erste Teil noch erträglich und anschaubar war, aber im Zweiten wirds dann richtig wirr und schlecht. Nicht absichtlich-lustig schlecht, nicht unfreiwillig komisch schlecht, einfach nur schlecht schlecht :-/
Der Plot gibt es im zweiten Teil endgültig auf noch irgendeinen Sinn vortäuschen zu wollen und wirft jeglichen Rest von Logik freudig über Bord, es werden noch schnell hintereinander und völlig sinnlos ein paar Nebencharaktere ins Nirvana geschickt weil wohl bisher noch nicht genügend gestorben sind um dann in ein lahmes Finale zu münden nach dem man einfach nurnoch froh ist dass der Film endlich vorbei ist.
Das Beste am ganzen Film waren noch die Reviews die ich grade dazu auf IMDB gelesen habe.. Die haben dann doch noch für ein paar herzliche Lacher gesorgt, denn nichtmal das hat der Film hinbekommen.
Wäre vielleicht als Kind bzw. junger Jugendlicher so von 8 bis maximal 14 Jahre noch ganz okay, aber selbst diese Zielgruppe verfehlt er zumindest hier in Deutschland dank FSK-16 Rating meilenweit.

Yes, Casper Van Dien, it's Tut. Well, actually, it's immortal, mystical, son-of-Ra Tut, with Mechanical Wing action, come to save the world from Set, Lord of the Underworld, in a (not very) climactic battle in a quarry.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you read that right. Sorry.
Look, I understand that pulp can take liberties with history and, you know, scientific accuracy. That's fine, as long as it's fun and at least somewhat convincing. But when it isn't, you get "The Curse Of King Tut" (DVD titled "The Curse Of King Tut's Tomb"), a meandering wonderland of nonsensical cuts, bad dialog, magical explosives that cut 90-degree angles straight down and characters who add nothing, and I repeat, NOTHING, to the development of the plot.
What plot, you ask? Ah, yes. Casper Van Dien plays Danny Fremont, who is neither Rick McConnell nor Indiana Jones (and he's not Daniel Jackson, either), who has found 3 of the 4 fragments of the Emerald Tablet which King Tut (an immortal superhero, by the way) used to trap Set (who looks like a beardless Cthulhu) in the Netherworld. His nemesis Sinclair (Jonathan Hyde) belongs to a secret cabal called The Hellfire Council (who are not the Illuminati) and has stolen all three of them so far. If Danny and his pals (whose names you don't learn until, ummm...I dunno, 45 minutes in?) fail to find the final fragment before Sinclair, then Sinclair will wear his sunglasses a lot and have incredible powers with which to control the world. Also, there will be CGI demons.
Naturally Danny DOES find it first, but his proved ability to lose important artifacts and not, you know, take basic precautions secures the fact that Sinclair gets it anyway and gets the powers and ahoy, the CGI demons. There's the obligatory love interest (Leonor Varela, whose character's name we also don't know for a while), the Crazy Wise Man, The Sexy Spy, The Comic Relief Who Adds Nothing To The Plot, The Tough Soldier, and The Horrible Dialogue. Russ Mulcahy, who left all his flair in 1985 where the pop music was better, phones it all in.
Oh, and apparently India looks like Egypt. Who knew?
Seven bucks gets you the DVD at Wal-Mart; 3 hours gets you an experience you'll never forget.
Neither one, unfortunately, is refundable.

I almost cried after watching this move, not because it was emotionally moving, but because I wasted $5 to rent it for the weekend. First of all, the editing sucked, some parts of the movie seemed to be recorded on a camcorder. The climax scene was more flat than week-old soda. Many things didn't make sense at all - such as French soldiers in full uniform in 100 degree heat, or dynamite blowing a perfect square hole in the ground in front of a tomb. The whole movie was not believable AT ALL. Honestly, I've seen better acting in porn. If you want a good Egypt movie, watch The Mummy instead.
Too bad I can't give this movie negative stars.

The only thing that kept me watching this turkey was the belief (fervent dream) that this sucker was going to improve, hopefully, dramatically. But...no..it..did..not...
There were some approaches to good action but they all fell short of Indiana Jones which the movie obviously impersonated, at least at times.
There was the usual Computer Generated Imagery made famous by the Mummy movies but that was impersonation on an amateurish level. This entire movie was like that - copycat and poorly made.
It makes me wonder how it got financial backing. Did someone lose a bet? Was blackmail employed in order to get funding? Extortion with a 9 millimeter to someone's head?
Zombie Strippers fand ich eigentlich auch ganz okay, darüber konnte man wenigstens noch lachen ^^
