Welcome, sons of the Pharaohs, under the shadow of Anubis to our 42nd Score Guide! Will, Wend, and Claude return to 1999 once more to guide you around quicksand, past plagues and curses, through the action-adventure horror remake, cream of cinematic cheese, The Mummy, composed and conducted by Jerry Goldsmith.

Twenty-five years after its release, your podcast adventurers shall be deciphering the hieroglyphic inscriptions, pulling open the sarcophagus, and chiselling the sacred spells to reveal the memorable themes, the classic Goldsmith orchestration techniques, and all those masterful musical gems that make this score a chamber of treasures from here to the City of the Dead, in an informative and entertaining track-by-track camel ride through 15 tracks of one of the best action and tension scores of the nineties.

Don’t mess with the scarabs!
