I usually refrain from leaving an all-out pan of a review, BUT, consider this a warning- I strongly suggest curious horror fans refrain from spending hard-earned money on a dvd of this dreadful bomb. I consider myself pretty open-minded when it comes to low-budget horror films. Often, the limited budget can lend a film a certain gritty, unrehearsed, documentary style, which can work in its favor and help create a believable atmosphere. Sadly, that is nowhere near the case with DAWN OF THE MUMMY. ... Read More

An attempt to merge mummy movies and living dead zombies. The acting is just awful, with hardly a shred of unchewed scenery by the end. For instance, one of the leading ladies finds a severed head in the desert, and begins to screetch and whoop while running in a circle around the head (as opposed to running away from it) until she finally launches herself at one of the guys and slides down his body like a cheap party dress in the back of a shag-carpeted van. In fact, both the story and effects ... Read More

Well, it's been awhile since I've seen something as bad as Dawn of the Mummy (1981)...and as one of my esteemed colleague mentions `It's not the best, it's not the worst'...to which I would agree, with a clarification...it's a lot closer to `the worst' rather than the `the best'. I certainly don't mind cheaply made exploitation films as long as there's heart involved, but I didn't get a sense of that here. All I got from this film was a sense of someone trying to cash in on the popular genre of the ... Read More

Now this movie has a brilliant concept: A zombie movie, but with mummies instead. The execution of it all is, um, flawed, but it's good campy fun anyway.
Lots of people out there who are horror fans are unable to take horror movies seriously- they just like them as camp or whatever. I am not one of these people, and while I certainly can enjoy good-bad movies, I prefer them to be genuinely good. Sadly, 'Dawn of the Mummy' cannot be taken seriously, at all. It's just way, way too amateurish ... Read More

One thing I seriously do not like is a page of reviews recommending that I buy a bad movie. I bought the DVD of 'Dawn of the Mummy' only to be seriously disappointed. I can take bad acting, a dumb plot, and even poor make-up effects; but not when it is this boring. This is the story of an archeologist who ignores the warnings of the locals regarding a tomb he blasts open and the models who discover his dig and think it would be an ideal place for a shoot (every fashion models dream). At least when the mummy ... Read More
