The Peculiar Influence of Horror/Mythology Blockbuster ‘The Mummy’ on Gaming

Horror and mythology movies offer the best of both worlds for history buffs and horror lovers. And when you do your research, there’s hardly a shortage of them. Taking something as popular as mythology and transforming it into something unique is an art in itself, and there are plenty of movies that have pulled this off. We look at The Mummy (1999) and its strong influence on gaming. We’re not talking about the latest Tom Cruise reboot from 2017. We’re talking about the classic one. The one from 1999 that features our beloved Brendan Fraser. It was a commercial success, what with its awe-inspiring Egyptian setting and horror-fueled adventure. This movie throws some horror elements into the mix. There’s a scene in the movie that involves live mummification. And while it’s certainly a gruesome concept that has you nail-biting, it’s also a direct acknowledgment of the culture of ancient Egypt. Mummification was a prominent part of ancient Egyptian life, so

Perpetrator stars Kiah McKirnan (Mare of Easttown), Christopher Lowell (MY BEST FRIEND’S EXORCISM), Melanie Liburd (The Idol), Ireon Roach (CANDYMAN 2021), and Alicia Silverstone (CLUELESS, KILLING OF A SACRED DEER) and produced by Gregory Chambet for WTFilms and Derek Bishé for Divide/Conquer.

Small Town Monsters: New Doc ‘On The Trail Of Bigfoot: Land Of The Missing’ To Be Unleashed

Among Alaska’s beautiful epic vistas and seemingly endless acres of wilderness lurks a dark secret. The secret, known by locals and hearty adventurers alike, revolves around the nearly constant disappearances that take place across “the land of the midnight sun.” While these disappearances seem to have often-mundane explanations, avalanches, constantly-changing terrain, and local wildlife, such as Alaska’s abundant bear population, are all common causes for missing people. But could something else be behind them? That’s the question explored in Small Town Monsters‘ new documentary On the Trail of Bigfoot: Land of the Missing, the sequel to this year’s documentary Last Frontier. Seth Breedlove and his team are exploring another potential cause for those who have gone missing. A cause whispered about amongst the locals. A cause talked about in the oral traditions of the First Nations people who inhabited the region long before white settlers arrived. The cause, they say, is a terrifying, blood-thirsty Sasquatch. Or maybe it’s the ice
