- A discovery is made written in the hieroglyphs inside Imhotep's sarcophagus that reveal the true extent of his curse.
From The Mummy (1932): A team of British archaeologists led by Sir Joseph Whemple (Arthur Byron) discover the mummified remains of the ancient Egyptian prince Imhotep (Boris Karloff), along with the legendary scroll of Thoth. When one of the archaeologists recites the scroll aloud, Imhotep returns to life, but escapes. Several years later, Imhotep has taken on the guise of a wealthy man, as he searches Egypt for his lost love, who he believes has been reincarnated as the lovely Helen Grosvenor (Zita Johann).

The hieroglyphs on the inside of the coffin really do say, "Imhotep, high priest of the temple of the sun (Ra) at Karnak."
That’s good attention to detail
Do you know of any other ancient Egyptian movies where I can play word games? The bread, mat, lion, owl, and feather sequence makes up the Ptolemies for one.
@@warrenrhinerson6373 classic movies were very good with that
@@crashpal Yeah I noticed that the more I watch she’s older films. I think the reason why there is so much better with attention to detail than modern movies, is because they cannot afford to get away with as much.
What a splendidly written, acted and shot scene.
Not much appears to be going on in it until Imhotep revives and retrieves the Scroll, taking the young and naive assistant’s abject sanity with it.
But once seen, you never forget it.
Is crazy that when this movie was made there were no superheroes with powers in tights yet
Chills ahead of most horror films since. Karloff is superb and the scene where Imhotep comes to life and takes the scroll off the desk will scare you every time.
@@Ruda-n4h right on
I loved that maniacal laugh when the mummy walked out
The hieroglyphics on the unbroken seal of the chest holding the scroll of Toth reads the name of the Pharaoh Atenaken. However, they pronounce it Amenophis, which is the Greek version of the Pharaoh Amenhotep, which was later changed to Akhenaten. Akhenaten IV was monotheistic and believed in only one god. It was he who changed his name from Amenhotep IV, which was also regarded in Greek as Amenophis. There seems to be a problem with a believer in one god, subjecting someone to the curse of another god, Amun RA, concerning the holy scroll of the god Toth, which reveals how the god Anubis takes you through the underworld after death.
The reason Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten) changed from polytheism to monotheism is due power.
When Amenhotep IV first came to the throne the priests of Amun-Ra we're the wealthiest and most powerful of Egypt. This was because everyone, including the pharaoh, had to go through the priests to get to Amun-Ra. The priests controlled everything.
So to get back power he decided to change to a single god that was accessable only through him. He changed his name from Amenhotep (which means Amun is satisfied) to Akhenaten (which means powerful for Aten).
The priests were very, VERY angry about all of this and they launched a smear campaign against him. He moved the capital to Amarna to get away from the old gods.
@@denisestover2416 Thank You. I always thought Akhenaten changed his beliefs out of benevolence. Also, Nephritis early death caused doubt among Egyptians over the Omnipotence of this religion.
@@denisestover2416 This puts the movie called, "The Egyptian" in somewhat perspective. It also reveals Amon Ra's blessing onto Alexander when he got lost on his downhill trek towards the Siwa Oasis to be deified. He was blessed with the only rain to have been known to fall there in hundreds of years and thus survived. However, it doesn't do justice to Aristotle's teaching of Natural Philosophy in that Alexander just had to keep going downhill into the Quatarra Depression instead of going in circles and getting lost. Thanks for the update.
@@denisestover2416 before he started worshiping Aten and changing his name to Akhenaten, Amenhotep IV worshipped several different gods, including Atum, Osiris, Anubis, Nekhbet, Hathor, and the Eye of Ra. Amenhotep IV even continued his father's construction projects at Karnak's Precinct of Amun-Re. It’s possible he was still worshiping the Egyptian Pantheon when Imhotep was sentenced to be buried alive.
@@denisestover2416 it's also possible Akhenaten is the very pharaoh who made Joseph his vizier and due to Joseph's visions becoming true he embraced monotheism
Although the H.T.P. hieroglyphs are obvious, the reed and the owl Icons are missing that make up the I and the M of the name Imhotep.
Addendum: I am referring to the hieroglyphics on the right side of the sarcophagus when they read the mummy's name Imhoptep. One hieroglyph for the letter, "m", is a side view of an owl, however: in this case, there is a front view of an owl with two wings, which is not a hieroglyphic letter. Also, the writings shift up and down on the sarcophagus and the spelling changes, never revealing a feather or reed for the letter, "I".
good 👍👍👍
Karlof had to spend 8 hours in the makeup chair to get ready for this one scene
That's why he preferred not to do it for the rest of the film. But in context he didn't need it unlike Lon Chaney who had to play Kharis as a slasher Jason Voorhees/micheal Myers type monster
At 2 03. It looks like too gay meant something different in 1932 than it means today. I notice they didn t revive the phrase in the brendan fraser series
According to Webster's dictionary "gay" still means happy or happiness
Its literally “ he got too happy with the priestesses”
A euphemism for him getting frisky
@@crashpal 'Light and airy' also.
Don't open the box......bad idea....don't you guys listen?!
What harm ever came from opening a box?
