The Mummy (2017)

We're finally entering the Dark Universe! At long last, it's time to dig into the paltry romance of Alex Kurtzman's ill-fated reboot of The Mummy, starring Tom Cruise in the would-be beginning of a cinematic universe. Join in as we discuss other occupants of the franchise graveyard, the development of the Dark Universe, the film's weirdly insulting location cards, and the puzzling nature of Tom Cruise's character. Plus: What was the mummy's goal? Did it technically win? Why didn't Nick's body burn up in the plane crash? What was Captain Salazar's deal? And, most importantly, what would a horror movie based on the card game Uno look like? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe! Next week: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
