The premise

After being buried in quicksand for the past 25 years, Kharis is set free to roam the rural bayous of Louisiana, as is the soul of his beloved Princess Ananka, still housed in the body of Amina Mansouri, who seeks help and protection at a swamp draining project.

Horror Vault's take

Deep in the Louisiana bayous, a draining project disturbs more than swampland — it awakens the shambling mummy Kharis and stirs the restless soul of the ancient Princess Ananka after decades of dark slumber. A woman connected to the site finds herself inexplicably drawn into a waking nightmare she cannot explain or escape. Universal's classic creature stalks the murky southern landscape in this atmospheric late-series entry, trading Egyptian sands for Spanish moss and fog-draped waterways. Fans of the golden age monster cycle will find a moody, compact chiller steeped in dread.
