Features: Three thousand years ago, the wealthiest pharaoh of ancient Egypt, Seti I, discovered the affair between his beloved queen and the high priest Imhotep and was murdered. Imhotep was mummified alive and subjected to the terrifying curse of ancient Egypt: living forever, forever suffering the torment of being bitten by scarabs. But there is a terrifying price to implementing this curse: if the cursed high priest and his lover return to the world, he will be invincible, and they can unleash a terrible plague upon the world, utterly destroying it. Three thousand years have passed. A fugitive legionary soldier, a beautiful female librarian, and her roguish older brother have arrived at the "city of death" where Imhotep was buried, accidentally awakening the demon from three thousand years ago.
