Mummies

Mummies (2023) resurrects the genre with a wry, slapstick adventure as three ancient mummies are inadvertently resurrected and transported to modern London. Their quest for a royal relic, stolen by the opportunistic Lord Carnaby, unfolds in a series of chaotic escapades that blend the supernatural with contemporary absurdity. Director Michael Dowse's playful take on the undead sends up both the pomp of British heritage and the chaos of the modern city, all wrapped in a brisk, irreverent package that delights in its own lunacy.
