The True Curse of the Mummy

Overview

Documentary which follows the attempts of scientists to learn more about the sarcophagus which is believed to have inspired Bram Stoker's 'The Jewel of the Seven Stars' in which an egyptologist unearths a powerful Egyptian queen whose mummified body returns to wreak deadly revenge on the living. Also identifies the 'curse' that killed Lord Caernarvon, co-discoverer of the tomb of Tutankhamun, as biological rather than magical.
