We have a lot of questions about the romance, and a lot more about the world of Doug Liman's 2005 action comedy sensation. Join in as we discuss the Brad Pitt / Angelina Jolie affair, the movie's gender politics, and private assassination companies. Plus: How did the Smiths build separate weapons vaults without noticing one another's? Why is the first half of this movie so dull? Is Keith David just running Charlie's Angels? And, once again, how do private assassin companies even work? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!

This week on Movie Club we dive into a long-requested classic and re-watch The Mummy. Safe to say that this movie holds up, and we had a blast watching it again. What do you think, Task Force? Why did we end up taking so long to watch this? Who knows.

In a quiet curiosity shop in Paris, a shelf holds a collection of objects from another time. Our protagonist notices a small object that at first appears to be the broken foot of a Greek statue. The antiques dealer, however, explains that it is the mummified foot of a pharaoh's daughter. The absurdity of a once royal foot now serving as a paperweight strikes them both. The dealer warns that the old pharaoh will not be pleased. First published in 1840 as "Le Pied de momie" in Le Chroniqueur de Paris, The Mummy's Foot is one of the earliest examples of French fantastic fiction. Théophile Gautier (1811–1872), a poet, novelist, and critic, was a leading figure of French Romanticism. Known for his belief in “art for art's sake,” he helped define the fantastic and Gothic tale as a lasting literary form.

Joe Lycett (aka Mummy) proves he is a wrongun!

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, the future arrives without a steering wheel, apparently. We dig into Tesla's Cybercab and the increasingly pressing question of how first responders are supposed to move a burning autonomous car when the emergency controls are a touchscreen and that touchscreen has decided to become modern art. We also examine California's new rules targeting addictive social-media features and AI chatbot interactions for minors, including the eternal nightmare of age verification; then WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg gets pulled into a corporate coup that lasts roughly 33 hours before everyone involved apparently decides, “Never mind.”Then it's time for the AI apocalypse, because, naturally, we can't have one episode without it. Anthropic is catching scientists using its models to develop potential biological weapons, while Palantir, Nvidia, and Booz Allen are imposing restrictions on Anthropic models over security and data-retention concerns. Meanwhile, OpenAI's supposedly sandboxed agents escaped into RubyGems, created accounts by the hundreds, and apparently decided that “hack,” “evil,” and “exploit” were perfectly reasonable filenames. We also look at proposals to slow AI development, AI's potential environmental consequences, autonomous weapons, and the increasingly charming idea of giving software access to things capable of killing people.And because civilization apparently has a content calendar, we move on to cloud infrastructure being blown up, Space Force asking for $71.3 billion, Dr. Doom and Darth Vader protesting surveillance in the most appropriate way possible, Binance allegedly facilitating Iranian money flows, and a whole lot of entertainment. We discuss Spotify finally learning that listening to children's music doesn't mean you actually want it in your Wrapped, AI-generated music and artist compensation, The Mummy proving once again that movies used to be fun, Slow Horses, The Last of Us, The Bear, Strange New Worlds, Band of Brothers, The Gentlemen, and the increasingly complicated Bobiverse. Also: books, time travel, and the horrifying realization that some television shows now require a flowchart.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.HIMS - Visit Hims.com/gog to get a personalized, affordable plan that gets you.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

For our second episode in this series, we move into the 1930s. Beyond Universal's horror boom—and, honestly, the emergence of the horror genre as we know it—there was a lot going on during this decade. With the Great Depression, the introduction of the Hays Code, and another World War on the horizon, audiences continued to escape into the world of monsters. But while these films are considered "old classics" today, they still contain some pretty dark subject matter. So join us as we explore this decade, discussing some of the major events and titles that shaped the horror genre almost 100 years ago! Titles mentioned in this episode: Black Cat (1934), Bride of Frankenstein (1935), Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Dark Eyes of London (1939), Dracula (1931), Dracula's Daughter (1936), Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931), Dr. X (1932), The Ghoul (1933), Ghost Cast and the Mysterious Shamisen (1938), Gone with the Wind (1939), Frankenstein (1931), Freaks (1932), The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959), Island of Lost Souls (1932), The Jazz Singer (1927), King Kong (1933), London After Midnight (1927), La Llorna (1933), M (1931), Mad Love (1935), Mark of the Vampire (1935), The Mummy (1932), Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932), Murders in the Zoo (1933), Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933), Old Dark House (1932), Son of Frankenstein (1939), Son of Kong (1933), Song at Midnight (1937), The Unholy Three (1930), The Vampire Bat (1933), Vampyr (1932), Werewolf of London (1935), White Zombie (1932), The Wizard of Oz (1939)

Time to tackle a beloved classic and the bisexual awakening of an entire generation of moviegoers, 1999's 'The Mummy'! Thrill to tales of angry camels, Brendan Fraser passing out on set, and all the dazzling CGI the late 90s had to offer as we do a deep dive into one of the biggest classics of one of cinema's best years!

A young woman sits for a portrait, turning over a small gold box while her fiancé paints. Inside: three scarlet seeds, brought back from a place he'd rather forget. He warns her the story behind them will haunt her. She only laughs — she likes weird tales, and they never trouble her. But something was disturbed in that pyramid, something bound by an old promise to whoever broke her rest. The seeds are waiting. So is the curse. Lost in a Pyramid; or, The Mummy's Curse first appeared in Frank Leslie's *The New World* on 16 January 1869, published under initials rather than a name. It vanished for over a century before being rediscovered in the 1990s as one of the earliest true "mummy's curse" stories. Its author was Louisa May Alcott, best known to the world as the creator of *Little Women*. Behind that respectable reputation, she spent years writing anonymous, blood-soaked thrillers — and this was one of the last.

"Have fun stormin' da castle." We watched "The Princess Bride" with our friend Melanie Vartabedian and we're still shouting quotes from this movie at each other from across the room. This movie is an absolute classic but like, it's really deserving of that moniker. This cast is pitch perfect, the script is non-stop quotable gold, and the direction by gone too soon Rob Reiner is top notch. Who would have thought that Borscht-Belt humor would mix so well into a medeival fairy tale? Rob Reiner, that's who. The film adaptation of the book by William Goldman passed through many directors hands but it was Reiner who completed the task and he made it work. Bringing on board new talent like Cary Elwes and Robin Wright, along side comedy mainstays like Christopher Guest and Billy Crystal, this cast is nothing short of phenomenal. Oh and we definitely think this movie gives "The Mummy" a run for it's money with the sheer number of bisexual awakenings. LIsten and find out our one squabble with this otherwise nearly flawless movie. "As you wish."

This week on Spitball Media, Jonn and B-Show (Shahin's out getting dental work done) and decide to go full hot-take mode on horror. No prep, no filter — just years of movie-watching opinions that might get them yelled at in the comments.They dig into whether 2025 has been a genuinely great year for horror, and get into it with a Gen Z take on Texas Chainsaw Massacre vs. its 2003 remake before spiraling into some genuinely spicy stuff: Lee Cronin's The Mummy landing on a top-five list, Smile 2 beating the original, Dawn of the Dead's remake outclassing Romero's version, Exorcist II getting more love than part III, and a full-on confession about not vibing with giallo classics like Suspiria and Argento's catalog. Terminator's modern sequels, Freddy vs. Jason, Hellraiser (2022), and Nightmare on Elm Street 3 all get put on trial too.Things get more serious when the guys talk about "elevated horror," subtlety vs. spoon-feeding in modern films, and where they think the genre's political messaging is heading with big upcoming properties like Crystal Lake and Carrie. Plus: viewer-submitted hot takes flood the chat, practical effects vs. CGI gets debated, and there's a surprising amount of talk about poutine, Canada, and Bane breaking Batman's back.Grab some popcorn (or poutine) and see how many of these takes make you scream at your screen.Join us every Wednesday at 7:30 pm eastern.Podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/horror-hot-takes-spitball-media-podcast-09-09-2026--75057624

On Episode 62 of the podcast we get back to the grind and cover a little bit of everything. We dig into Artisan Cutlery — those good-looking, affordable knives coming out of China — and share our thoughts on the value and quality. I also ran the Ruger Mini-14 with an IC13 bandoleer originally made for the AR-15 and talk about how it performed. We discuss the upcoming Bond Arms LVRB and what has us interested in it. Plus, a conversation about what it really means to be a firearm instructor. And for the movie corner: Lee Cronin's The Mummy plus a look at some of the other versions of the classic story.

Research into Mummies isn't all about the past, as new scientific techniques uncover ancient bacteria that could lead to significant medical breakthroughs.

Well many weeks after recording I finally edited this episode (sorry for the delay sometimes life gets in the way). The gang is back for some good and bad movie discussion and our usual nonsense. Shane gives his review of child labor Temu T-shirts, Ryan is entering the geriatric phase of life and needs reading glasses now, and Mike is back on the Elden Ring wagon while he works on his house. The boys consider changing the format to reviewing podcasts instead of movies, speaking of reviews, Ryan reviews some recently read books The House that Horror Built, The Staircase in the Woods, and Breeding Ground. New trailers for #attackofthekillertomatoes #streetfighter and we all pay homage to the late, great Sam Neill R.I.P. Onto some more film discussions we review #LeeCroninsTheMummy #EvilDeadBurn and #MortalKombat2. Also included is a bonus review of #MastersoftheUniverse and a special guest appearance at the end of the podcast!

Have you ever wondered whether your drinking is still “normal,” or whether alcohol is taking up more space in your life than you'd like to admit?In this episode of One for the Road, Sober Dave is joined by bestselling author and grey area drinking expert Sarah Rusbatch for an honest conversation about women's relationship with alcohol, mummy wine culture, moderation and the subtle ways drinking can become something we rely on.Sarah shares how she appeared happy and successful on the outside while, internally, her anxiety was getting worse and alcohol was taking up more and more headspace. What began as a way to socialise and have fun gradually became wine at home, a reward at the end of the day and a way to switch off.They explore why so many women don't identify with traditional ideas of alcohol addiction, how one glass can quietly become two or three, the shame of repeatedly promising yourself you'll drink less, and why grey area drinking can be so difficult to recognise.Sarah also opens up about trying to moderate her drinking for years before eventually accepting two things that changed her life: she couldn't moderate, and everything in her life was better when she didn't drink.Dave and Sarah also discuss mummy wine culture, alcohol marketing towards women, the 5 p.m. drinking trigger, alcohol and anxiety, sober friendships, relationships after quitting drinking, finding healthier ways to regulate stress, and learning to build a life where alcohol is no longer needed as the reward.If you've ever thought, “I don't have a drinking problem, but I know I want to drink less,” this episode is for you.Sarah Rusbatch is the bestselling author of Beyond Booze and host of the Stronger, Bolder, Wiser podcast.Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@soberdaveonefortheroad Hosted on Acast.

It's an unexpected triple feature of LEE CRONIN'S THE MUMMY, READY OR NOT 2: HERE I COME, and SEND HELP- splatstick spookablast enthusiasts are already pressing play, so make sure you do the same!

As the swampy weather persists in Tennessee, Troy and I jump into the humid Louisiana heat to see what that knucklehead Kharis is doing. THE MUMMY'S CURSE (1944) is the last of the Universal films focused on our ancient Egyptian creature but does the series end on a high note or stumble toward the exit? We will discuss while sipping fresh Tana Tea.   Clocking in at barely an hour it would be easy to think the film could or even should be a little longer but you wouldn't know it from the body count the movie racks up! There seems to be a race between the dusty undead Kharis and a clearly insane member of the Louisiana chapter of the Karnak cult to strangle or stab every character we like almost as soon as they turn their backs on one of the villains. This allows me to expound on my new theory of Monster Blindness that appears to afflict everyone stalked by a mummy. Have they no peripheral vision? I also question the olfactory abilities of waiting victims who must be able to at least smell the approaching cloth-wrapped worm-bait. And hang around for the most bizarre theory of all as I propose an alternate possible reason for the shift of location from New England in the previous movie – it is an odd one, believe me! Along the way we discuss wooden actors, solar powered princesses and Folger's coffee. We cover a lot of ground and much faster than that limping mummy! If you have any comments about this movie or any other film we've covered on the show thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. How would you rank the four Kharis films? Thank you for listening and we'll be back soon.

I finally re-watched the third in the trilogy and it wasn't as bad as I remembered.

So much better than we expected! Natalie Grace in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) ★★★★ The first half of 2026 certainly made a statement in the horror genre. Reverberations will be felt across Hollywood as studios reassess what constitutes a blockbuster. The recent critical success of Sinners, Weapons, and The Substance appears to be bearing fruit. The results may have led to a diverse slate of offerings for 2026, and it is reflected in the wide array of horror offerings so far this year. If variety is your preference, then you have been in luck, so far. The unimaginable financial and critical success of Obsession and Backrooms, particularly given their low cost, have re-written the horror producer’s playbook, and will have a lasting impact for years to come. The Scariest Things evaluated what we’ve seen so far, and have come back with a report card of our favorites. The Mid Major – Large Indie Productions: It will be interesting to do an autopsy of 2026’s horror fare when we do our year end assessment. This year’s crop has been notably light on mid-major productions so far. The roaring successes we’ve seen thus far have been from the deep indie filmmakers. Backrooms, Undertone, Hokum, and Obsession. All original titles, and produced for less than $5 million. These are not the type of films you would typically predict would be box office hits. But, they outperformed any reasonable expectation, particularly startling for Backrooms and Obsession, which will have cinema economists trying to figure out the alchemy. The Major Studios: There were only a few major studio franchise sequels this year. All of them capable, but none of them superseding their source material. Scream 7 did very well at the box office, but it failed to make a big impression. Evil Dead Burn was a very violent, very intense outing that didn’t connect in the way its predecessors have. Scary Movie also did well on its $30 million budget, earning $210 million, its long layoff didn’t hurt its popularity, despite the derivative humor. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was a hit with critics (including our own Liz Williams) but it’s turn from zombies may have hurt it in the box office, as it probably will not make its budget back. The notable big comeback was Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, which gives horror fans hope that Universal has gotten their monsterverse back on track, and remembered how to deliver a vicious movie with a good story. The Festival Circuit: Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get out to as many film festivals this year as we would have liked, but we still managed to review a lot of great small indie horror films. Our traditional rotation of SXSW, Overlook, Portland Horror, and Popcorn Frights all provided very interesting films from emerging filmmakers. Even the bigger festival this year were heavy on small indie productions, and there were a lot of good offerings. We didn’t discuss all of them in our Podcast, but you can review a lot of the movies we saw with links on the images below. There is an emerging trend of release schedules for many of the best independent horror films, relative to the festival circuit. Open at SXSW (Or sometimes Sundance), get some buzz, go to Overlook to validate the buzz, and then release in the early summer. It can be a big momentum builder. Last year it was The Ugly Stepsister (Oscar Nom), and Good Boy that were the big beneficiaries of that combination. This year it was Obsession, Hokum, and Leviticus. Sometimes Panic Fest will factor into the equation, depending on when runs relative to Overlook. Popcorn Frights still brought a massive catalogue for viewing, but this year was more reliant on reperatory films. Some of my favorite films this year were horror adjacent, and all of their streaming content was small indie productions. Our favorite local festival, The Portland Horror Film Festival had an unusually large amount of feature films, and the best part was that almost all of the directors participated in the festival. We were fortunate to get interviews with all of them. Check out our Podcasts for the interviews. It was a diverse group of films, and not a dud among them. What is Still Coming in 2026? Probably the most intriguing film still due out is a new take on Resident Evil by Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian and Weapons. This is a major tonal shift for Sony. No more Mia Jovovic or Paul W.S. Anderson. Video game translations are usually dubious, and the franchise squandered its potential. It became more superhero and less horror. However, Sony is gambling that with the right creator, it might revitalize the legacy, and Cregger may inject real scares into this franchise for the first time since the original. We shall see. The trailer looks great. Other Mommy, which arrives on October 9, has some incredibly disturbing visuals. Jessica Chastain stars, and Rob Savage (Host) directs. This uncanny-valley movie came late to my radar and is intriguing. Later this August, the Insidious franchise is issuing Insidious: Out of the Further. Lin Shaye returns, Leigh Whannell writes this, and it has a banger trailer. This franchise has maintained some of the scariest PG-13 fare, but the sequels have been a gradual decline in quality. We’ll see how this goes. Beware Boiúna might give us the Anaconda movie we wish we got earlier this year, and wipe the slate clean from the Jack Black/Paul Rudd disappointment. It’s R-rated, and features reliable scream queen Jessica Rothe, along with Logan Marshall-Green and Kiana Madeira in the Amazon. The trailer impressed me with the snake’s monstrousness. Another fascinating man-vs-nature survival tale is Whalefall, a terrifying concept in which a scuba diver is in jeopardy of being consumed by a sperm whale if the giant squid the whale has snagged doesn’t kill him first. Clayface will attempt to bridge the superhero and horror genres, which is no easy feat. Will it have enough horror for horror fans, and will it have enough fealty to the Batman universe to appeal to the comic book fans? Mike Flanagan wrote it, and it promises real R-rated body horror, so it could be very interesting. Lastly, Robert Eggers’ period piece Werwulf is getting the full Eggers treatment, in monochrome and as moody as you could possibly want. Hopefully it will get the stink of the Wolf Man out of our popcorn. Just give me a great transformation scene, please. Keep an eye out for It Ends, a festival darling from 2025 which is finally getting a limited release this year. It is a brilliant, if melancholy purgatory metaphor. If you enjoyed Backrooms, you should check this film out if you are lucky enough to have it showing in a theater near you. Of course, some smaller films will come out of the shadows and inevitably make our end-of-the-top-10 lists, but this is what we know so far.

We're heading outside the Disney bubble for a full Universal Orlando trip report! On this episode, we're recapping our recent stay and everything we experienced across Universal's Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios Florida, including 18 attractions, plenty of snacks, some seriously wet water rides, and one of the biggest questions we had going into the trip: just how valuable is Universal Express Pass? We worked our way through nine attractions at each park, from The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, and Jurassic World VelociCoaster to Revenge of the Mummy, E.T. Adventure, MEN IN BLACK Alien Attack, and Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts. Along the way, we tracked the posted standby wait for every attraction and compared it with how long we actually waited using Express. And the results were pretty eye-opening. We also talk about our stay at Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, transportation, park entry, and some of the food and snacks we tried along the way, including Butterbeer, a Honeydukes pumpkin pastry, and the wonderfully strange Pizza Dog. Then we wrap everything up by looking at the actual cost of Unlimited Express during our visit and answering if would we pay for it separately? Does staying at a Signature Universal resort where Express is included completely change the value equation? And beyond simply saving time, did Express make the entire Universal experience better?

Dan's  one and only - but much bigger than normal story - we visit an abandoned mining town in Chile's unforgiving Atacama Desert.

Peggy The Doll seems to be having long term affects on one listener who didn't properly say good-bye, as the rules go.

Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH."
