In this episode, we break down Lee Cronin's The Mummy and why it feels so off from what you’d expect. Instead of a traditional mummy movie built around mythology and curses, this leans heavily into possession horror, feeling closer to films like Evil Dead Rise and The Exorcist. 

We talk about how the movie focuses more on being gross and uncomfortable than on actually being scary, and how that shift changes the entire experience. From the tone to the rules it’s playing by, we break down why it feels like a completely different movie than what the title promises—and whether that disconnect is the real reason it doesn’t land.
