323 - MEGA: Make Egypt Great Again! - The Mummy (1932)
Welcome back to Fright School! Joshua is trying to reorganize the Wes Craven Memorial Library with the help of Libib. Joe shares about his great job at decluttering in a clear targeted attack on Joshua. We discuss SEND HELP, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA 2, and the untimely death of Koji Suzuki, the author behind THE RING. This week, we kick off a new unit all about THE MUMMY! We lay the foundation for the film by reviewing the Egyptomania that took hold of the Western world especially after the discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb. We examine the film's themes rooted in imperialism, colonialism, ancient Egyptian spiritual practices, and consider Imhotep's status as a sympathetic villain.
