PLOT SYNOPSIS

Few know the details of King Tut’s life – no one knows the secrets of his death. All that is about to change. Searching for King Tut’s Emerald Tablet, archaeologists Danny Fremont (CASPER VAN DIEN) and Morgan Sinclair (JONATHAN HYDE) venture into the Valley of the Kings, nearer the portal to another world and closer to the truth behind a mystery that will change the world forever… or end it.

VIDEO – 3.75/5, AUDIO – 4.0/5

This is the second time this film has been released on DVD (it also got multiple Blu-ray releases in some form), previous ones through Echo Bridge Entertainment, and is presented with a pleasant enough looking 16×9 enhanced 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and the audio provided is a DTS 5.0 track which presumably was only a step below the DTS-HD MA 5.1 on the Blu-ray.

OVERALL – 2.0/5

Overall, The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb is a harmless but nevertheless bad adventure-fantasy that tries to be the low budget version of The Mummy but fails, along with some poor performances albeit not helped by shoddy writing. The DVD release is another rehash offering nothing except cheap looking cover artwork.
