"Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs, brings to life ancient wonders, historic intrigue and a modern-day forensic adventure, all in one eye-popping new film opening in IMAX® and other Giant Screen Theaters in June 2007.
Why are people endlessly fascinated with mummies? The worldwide curiosity about mummification is an age-old phenomenon as enduring as mummies themselves. During Egypt’s history, literally millions of mummies were made. In Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs, filmgoers will marvel at the sight of these human time capsules, shown in larger-than-life detail on the giant screen.
Narrated by actor Christopher Lee (The Lord Of The Rings, Star Wars, and the original 1959 film The Mummy), Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs unravels some of the mysteries enshrouding the ancient royal mummies, how they were embalmed and where they were hidden. The film recreates the dramatic story of their recovery—an Indiana Jones-type tale of tomb-raiders and hidden treasure that led to one of the most significant archaeological finds in modern history. Featuring top researchers, such as Egyptologists Dr. Bob Brier and Dr. Zahi Hawass (head of Egypt’s antiquities) and DNA scientist Angelique Corthals, Mummies also embarks on a genetic analysis of mummies that could have huge implications for the study of modern human diseases."
