It is amazing how curses get locked up into a second rate drama at best. This TV movie is pretty savage. If King Tut had relics like this, I should stop going to my neighbors garage sale. Positive I saw some of these items there.
It is interesting how this film abuses Eva Marie Saint and Raymond Burr, or maybe I should say cloaks them in mystery in a sub-standard script. Considering this is 1980, this film could have been made in the 1950's in color, the 40's if it were black and white. In fact, it reminded me a a Three Stooges short film, "We Want Our Mummy" only without the humor.
The curse appears to be more a series of coincidences and an asp snake. Oh, lordy, the melodrama is thick enough to cut with a soap opera. Even sadder, all the characters seem to be made out of cardboard pizza boxes. I watched it for the casting of Burr and Saint. The mummy got me, and I am now cursed too.
