Bubba Ho-Tep (2002)

It's the day after Labor Day, and the start of my annual Spooky Movie Fest. There's a number of good mummy movies out there. I'm partial to Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (based on Stoker's Jewel of the Seven Stars). And honourable mention to Abbot & Costello Meet the Mummy — the grand finale is great!

The Mummy (1932). Gorgeous, evocative photography and staging.

The Mummy, 1999 with Brendan Fraser

The 1999 Mummy for me. But I'm not really much of a horror fan, so from the standpoint of this poll, I'm probably admiring it for the wrong reasons.

Missing the We Want Our Mummy – 1939 (3 Stooges)

link – a few more on this list

I've seen the 1999 one and a old black-and-white one, possibly the 1932. I'm probably not the target audience for this poll.

The Mummy, 1999

Personal logo miniMo Supporting Member of TMP02 Sep 2025 11:11 a.m. PST

The 1999 reboot is good if you like modern action-adventure movies, sort of like Jurassic Park but with a mummy. Universal had various starts to rebooting The Mummy in fits and starts for about a decade. George Romero was in on two the starts, pity he didn't get to complete one, that would have been a horror movie.

1999 Mummy.

Perris0707 Supporting Member of TMP02 Sep 2025 11:35 a.m. PST

The Mummy 1999. The soundtrack alone makes it great.

Titchmonster02 Sep 2025 1:56 p.m. PST

Mummy 1999. Great action.

1999 with Brenden for the win.

Bubba Ho-tep #1!

Mister Mummy imdb.com/title/tt17736704 (Hey, you didn't say what type of mummy, and this is about as bad a movie as the worst actual mummy movie ever … Day of the Mummy, maybe?)

Back in the 90s one of the episodes of Amazing Stories TV series was called "The mummy's a daddy."
It is gut- bustingly funny.
Rarely laughed so hard in my life.
