Some kids are riding dirt bikes in Southern California, and one of them falls into a hole. What's in the hole? Well, an ancient Egyptian burial chamber of course. Archaeologists are called in to investigate, and they end up awakening the spirit of the evil priestess. She uses her "legion" of mummies (at least 5 or 6 of them) to track down a virgin and bring them back for sacrifice. She also spends a great deal of time running around nude, taking a skinny-dip in a hotel pool, killing some guy for a reason I can't remember, etc.
The main character is a female archaeologist (the "star" according to the advertising is Bruce Boxleitner, but he's only in a few scenes). She's actually the high point of the movie, acting-wise. She gives a fairly descent performance, and she's certainly not bad to look at. Her plot is mostly concerned with the fact that she has to work with a guy who used to like her, but she betrayed him by sleeping with one of her professors, who she also has to work with. Will she be able to defeat the evil priestess and her "legion" of undead, while at the same time fending off advances from her professor and patching things up with the guy she likes? You'll have to tune in and see for yourself.
Overall, the action in this movie is quite silly, and if you're into so-bad-they're-good movies, this should fit the bill. It's a fairly fast paced, fun romp, though the "climax" is a bit of a letdown as it's actually a bit more dull than the lead-up to it, but oh well.
