When an archaeological expedition uncovers the tomb of ancient Egyptian priest Imhotep, a careless reading of a lost spell brings the mummy back to life. Imhotep breaks free from the dig site and stalks the modern world, hunting the reincarnated soul of his beloved while a deadly curse spreads among the survivors.
