I for one love the idea doctors let a clearly dead girl go home with her parents. That really sets the tone.

Yeah I’m usually not too hung up on stuff like this, but huh?? She is dead for 8 years, hasn’t aged (I’m assuming), has claw fingernails, and gets to go home?

1

LatterTarget7 Apr 1, 2026 +1

She looks like a rotting corpse and the doctors and police just let her go home.

I mean, as long as she has the *capacity* to refuse medical care, it would be illegal to keep her, right? Granted her condition is unique, but you can't just go around *assuming* a girl is a danger to herself or others just because she's undead. That's deathism, man.

Can she walk? Then she can walk out of my office.

CrotasScrota84 Apr 1, 2026 +1

It makes perfect sense she doesn’t have healthcare and in America of course they’re going to let her go home

1

IrrelevantPuppy Apr 1, 2026 +1

Take these $3000 antibiotics for 2 weeks and if it doesn’t get better it was probably something else or something idk. Come back and we’ll take more money- I mean try something else.

1

Animalpoop Apr 1, 2026 +1

Personally I’m here for it, and hope it gets decent reviews. I’m excited for the Brenden Fraser reboot coming, but I’ll take more scary mummy movies anytime.

1

TheJoshider10 Apr 1, 2026 +1

Yeah I'm very interested in the concept of a mummy possession/exorcism movie, but I hope it's a little more "Autopsy of Jane Doe" and less "spooky child haunts her home". The latest trailer has me worried it's more of the latter.

1

phantom-firion Apr 1, 2026 +1

Yeah I’m thinking exorcist but with extra crust and maggots which I’m simply not interested in seeing in a mummy themed story

1

Funcron Apr 1, 2026 +1

The premise has turned me off altogether. '*Our child which disappeared, is now an undead crusty mummy? We just need to take her home and act like everything is normal, and it will all be okay!*'

1

MightyKrakyn Apr 1, 2026 +1

I don’t think she’s immediately an undead crusty mummy. I think it’s “people who have been through traumatic experiences can look disheveled, vacant, and generally off. one major way to help is convalescence with loved ones.”

1

Spellambrose Apr 1, 2026 +1

Can’t some of you guys stop nitpicking every single thing in movies to appear smart, instead of engaging in good faith with the material? Do you genuinely think that the family *knows* from the beginning that their daughter is literally an undead mummy? Instead of rationally thinking that she’s just been through torture and trauma, which would explain her creepy behavior and appearance? Like, it’s very clear from the trailer, did you even bother to watch it? That smugly, forced cynicism is so tiring, my God. Stop acting like CinemaSins.

1

phantom-firion Apr 1, 2026 +1

It’d be more believable if they cut the timeline down from 8 years to 8 days

1

mixedmartialmarks Apr 1, 2026 +1

Yea man i fee like half of Listnook’s movie discourse is just *this movie did something I think it’s stupid, therefore movie is stupid and I am much smarter than movie* 😎 I’m proud of my skill to be able to turn off my brain for 90 minutes and get lost in a story without having to feel smarter than it. People need to practice it.

1

Spellambrose Apr 1, 2026 +1

It makes every movie discussion insufferable. I’m all for fair criticism, but it comes to a point man. Too many people have strong negative opinions about movies or shows they clearly didn’t bother to watch, or didn’t engage in with good faith and attention. They complain so many times about stuff that are clearly explained in the movie. It’s ok to not be interested in/dislike a movie or show. You don’t have to rationalize it with some made up flaw that clearly shows you don’t know what you’re talking about. Too many times I feel like Chris: https://i.redd.it/immdp0hdfmsg1.gif

1

Lucas74BR Apr 1, 2026 +1

I'm sorry, but suspension of disbelief has its limits. If something is stupid enough to take the audience out of the movie, then it's probably really bad. Even if they don't know that she's a mummy. What kind of doctor would let a girl that looks like THAT go home?

1

Spellambrose Apr 1, 2026 +1

Complaining that a doctor shouldn’t let a girl go home in that state is a fair criticism. (Even though it may be explained why *in the movie*.) Pretending that the family knows from the very beginning that their kid is an evil mummy and doesn’t care is something else entirely. That’s what I was disagreeing with.

1

Dagordae Apr 1, 2026 +1

‘Good faith’ has its limits and goes both ways. If the film isn’t going to make even the slightest effort to make the premise actually make sense in the set parameters then I won’t make the effort to engage in good faith. Instead I shall be mocking the bad writing and glaring plot holes needed for the film to work.

1

HoneySuspicious9564 Apr 1, 2026 +1

What’s funnier, the government just gives away the kid that was found in an ancient sarcophagus to her parents instead of locking that kid deep underground in a secure facility

1

N8CCRG Apr 1, 2026 +1

Glad I'm not the only one. So tired of the internet's low effort snark these days. This genuinely looks like it could be enjoyable, and there are dozens of ways the movie could easily get past all of these imagined "plotholes" once we actually watch the movie.

1

neon Apr 1, 2026 +1

Imagine this existing when the world knows more Brendan Fraser mummy is coming

1

riegspsych325 Apr 1, 2026 +1

that’s probably why they put the director’s name in the title so they could differentiate. But even this movie seems more like Pet Sematary than a more horror-focused Universal Mummy adaptation

1

SuperDizz Apr 1, 2026 +1

There was an article a while back that said they were changing the name to The Possessed or The Returned (or something like that) in order to stop confusion over the upcoming Mummy movie. I guess they decided to go with it anyways.

1

Electric_Elephants Apr 1, 2026 +1

I definitely like the concept. It just doesn’t feel like a mummy movie without being set in the dessert.

1

TripleSingleHOF Apr 1, 2026 +1

>set in the dessert. Were you thinking more of a sundae/banana split, or a slice of cake/pie?

1

riegspsych325 Apr 1, 2026 +1

I get that mummies/mummification is the catalyst for this story, but the titling is a bit of a head scratcher. But then again, what else would you call it? “Mummy’s Home”, “Wrapped Up”, “The Sarcophagus”? If the movie happens to be good, I don’t think its title will be a problem at all

1

George__Parasol Apr 1, 2026 +1

Goosebumps had an episode where Egyptologist dad sent a sarcophagus back home to mom and kids in the suburbs (lol), it was called Don’t Wake Mummy

1

BlazingCondor Apr 1, 2026 +1

It's a legal thing. Universal owns the film rights to the Mummy. This isn't Universal so they had to get clever.

1

DistortedAudio Apr 1, 2026 +1

Honestly didn’t know people were this hype for the Fraser Mummy movies. The first one has a spot near and dear to my heart. 2 and 3 were pretty bad and kicked up the humor and got away from some of the cool stuff from the first I really liked.

1

Right_Layer_9700 Apr 1, 2026 +1

We used to get multiple monster movies in the same year. Christoper Lee played Dracula 3 times in one year. I could see them bringing core monsters back with multiple movies that don’t intertwine.

1

N8CCRG Apr 1, 2026 +1

Anyone excited for any of these 20+ year old nostalgia farming projects is someone I know I don't care about their opinion on movies.

1

AdventuresOfKrisTin Apr 1, 2026 +1

I don't mind other mummy movies existing but why do they all have to have that exact name 😭. Surely there is something else we can call these movies other than just "THE MUMMY", no not that one, another one. Not the Tom Cruise one either. A different one! To me it seems like all these movies are just banking on duping audiences into thinking they're getting more Brendan Fraser mummy lmao

1

raysofdavies Apr 1, 2026 +1

The new Brendan Fraser Mummy is not gonna do as well as people on here want and it won’t be close.

Its not a mummy movie until I see the trailer without the ADR or music correctly applied.

Eh, this isn't a reboot, it's a new horror story about mummies that has literally nothing to do with the previous franchises. Not even the same studio.

Yeah at the very least have a new name or something like "The Ancient Burial of the Fuckwit who Thought Cursing his own Corpse was a Good Idea"

1

N8CCRG Apr 1, 2026 +1

Connected to mummies? I would hope so.

1

K1dn3yFa1lur3 Apr 1, 2026 +1

That tagline would work really well for Pet Sematary.

1

GooseIntelligent9981 Apr 1, 2026 +1

I was so excited for this until the “don’t worry grandma, it’s fun to be dead!” line in the trailer. Absolutely killed any interest in the movie for me

1

JaylenBrownAllStar Apr 1, 2026 +1

Gave me evil dead vibes

1

sithfistoou Apr 1, 2026 +1

Lee Cronin also wrote and directed Evil Dead Rise.

Yeah I’m hype for this movie tbh. Looks horrifying and will have some silly moments

1

Datelesstuba Apr 1, 2026 +1

I’m still optimistic, because the dude’s a good director and apparently this is really gnarly. He was clearly going for another “Mommy’s with the maggots,” type-line and it just does not work here.

1

TheFastestKnight Apr 1, 2026 +1

Same. I was loving the tone, the cinematography (which is beautiful) and the vibes. Then I heard that line and I cringed so hard I lost interest in the film.

1

Data_Chandler Apr 1, 2026 +1

> “don’t worry grandma, it’s fun to be dead!” Literally when I shut off the trailer as well. Dumb as hell

FlaviusVespasian Apr 1, 2026 +1

So this is basically the exorcist, right?

1

Buddy_Dakota Apr 1, 2026 +1

So is this a mummy movie set in Egypt, shot on location? Or is it just 10 minutes of finding a mummy before it’s shipped to the US, before the rest ofthe movie is haunted house/monster/evil dead ripoff film set exclusively inside a modern home?

1

LatterTarget7 Apr 1, 2026 +1

Its 5 minutes or less of finding a mummy then the rest is in the family’s house while the daughter is possessed by a demon

1

Earth_Worm_Jimbo Apr 1, 2026 +1

Why is the directors name part of this films marketing?

1

Tolkien-Minority Apr 1, 2026 +1

The studio is trying to differentiate it from the action series of the same name

1

FX114 Apr 1, 2026 +1

Possibly are legally required to.

1

AdventuresOfKrisTin Apr 1, 2026 +1

They could just...give it a different name. Idk why they insist on making completely different movies with the same exact title lmao

1

Tolkien-Minority Apr 1, 2026 +1

Well the Brendan Frasier Mummy films weren’t the first movies to have that name either.

1

AdventuresOfKrisTin Apr 1, 2026 +1

Yeah true but those movies have become a pop culture staple at this point and definitely are what people first think of when they hear the name.

1

DadGhost Apr 1, 2026 +1

Because Universal decided to actively develop other mummy movies, including the franchise reboot, while this was in post production. There were rumors from World of Reel that it was going to be retitled "The Resurrected" but they decided to go forward with Lee Cronin's The Mummy instead.

1

arthurdentstowels Apr 1, 2026 +1

I just can't believe how many #IMAX sequel movies there are! They just keep pumping out IMAX after IMAX.

1

TheFastestKnight Apr 1, 2026 +1

A few years ago there was this horror film called 'The Pyramid'. There are many alternatives that could work: The Sarcophagus, The Curse of..., The Dissappearance of... you get the idea. I know 'The Mummy' is a recognisable title and they'll probably think they'll get more money with this title, but even after two trailers and various posters, every single post from film sublistnooks has people asking where is Brendan, people clarifying this is different from The Mummy 4, people baffled at the idea of "another Mummy film"... And this is film listnook. Imagine the general audience.

1

DLRsFrontSeats Apr 1, 2026 +1

Half this sub: "lol this is going to get crushed by the bread and Fraser Rachel weisz mummy, no one will even know about this" Half this sub: "who is lee Cronin and why is his name on the poster"

1

Ok-Wolf5932 Apr 1, 2026 +1

Different from the action ones, this is like a horror movie similar to something like Pet Sematary.

1

ROBtimusPrime1995 Apr 1, 2026 +1

Not a remake. It's just a horror movie using a mummy like how others use zombies, demons, vampires, werewolves, etc. Mummies are a low-tier monster within the horror genre that gets no love.

1

riegspsych325 Apr 1, 2026 +1

“but why wasn’t Luke Evans back as Dracula in Renfield??”
