PLOT SUMMARY<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Dr. Victor Frankenstein (MAX RHYSER) and Egyptologist Naihla Shalil (ASHTON LEIGH) are both professors at a leading medical university. Victor’s latest grisly “experiment” is the re-animated corpse of a sadistic madman (CONSTATIN TRIPES) and Naihla’s most recent find is the cursed mummy of an evil pharaoh (BRANDON de Spain). When the two monsters face-off in an epic showdown, no one is safe from the slaughter. Can the murderous rampage be stopped and the carnage contained before it’s too late?<\/p>\n

VIDEO \u2013 3.0\/5 | AUDIO \u2013 3.25\/5
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The movie is presented with a 16×9 enhanced 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and is mostly muted in terms of colors and looks like a cheap production especially looking at the production designs.<\/p>\n

The Dolby Digital 5.1 is mild but effective with clear enough dialogue levels while the action scenes do tend to top out and don\u2019t show a whole lot of depth.<\/p>\n

OVERALL \u2013 2.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, Frankenstein vs. The Mummy<\/em><\/strong> is what it seems to be: a cheap direct-to-video schlock with (at best) so-so performances. This isn\u2019t a great movie by any stretch and the only reason to even see it, and endure the lengthy 115-minute running time, is for those who want to check out B-movie material.
