I love when it's late at night and you can't sleep, then you turn on the television and see that one of your old all-time favorite movies is on. Tonight is was the 1999 flick The Mummy starring Brendan Fraser and Rachael Weisz. The story in a nut shell: Evelyn (Rachael Weisz's character) and her brother Jonathan enlist the help of Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser's character) on a trip to the lost city of Hamunaptra, a lost ancient city in Egypt. After saving him from being hanged they set off on their journey, but when they have finally made it to their destination they realize they are not the only group who are in the lost city. The others are diggers who stumble upon a tomb, but once they open the tomb they unleash a curse. Now that the mummy is awake they have to do all they can to send the High Lord Imhotep back to his grave.
I remember seeing this in theaters; this is a wonderful movie and I recommend all to see it. Sadly it is not on Netflix, but you can by the trilogy (yes there are three) at Walmart, from what I recall, for fifteen dollars. I know that I must go and buy these, why I have not in the past is beyond me but I love it and can't wait to snuggle up with my husband and watch.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
