Dawn of the Mummy

Review: Too much crummy acting in this one, and not enough quality make-up effects makes this hard to recommend. Most of the gore is a person lying stock-still with blood and meat poured on them while (Egyptian!?) zombies sit around chewing. This way-low-budget flick doesn't really have set-piece effects where you see the ripping and tearing (think Savini's work in Day of The Dead), so it flops as a gore shocker. Even the machette in the head scene is very poorly done, with a quick edit to a laughable 'dummy' head for the hit. Still, for the price, it's a cheap ride, so you can add it to the collection without much buyer's remorse.
