    This one has a Mummy, and she really isn't happy!

    The Episode falls from it's pacing, and the kids just not being the best characterised, I wouldn't say it's outright the WORST one but the Flaws are abit more apparent here. And the lack of direction means this one falls short of that Spark the long episode run had, and that was Entertainment.

    This one lacks Pacing, and a fluid pattern of fun and energetic characters to lift it's spirit up, unfortunately it crumbles to it's feet with some good moments of scares, flashes of charisma here and their, and the occasional good quip. But the episode stems from a lack of pacing, eventfulness, and leaps in logic.

    I think the long-run sort of faulted here, but it isn't by any means that bad. But the arguments, and the guy being scared of his own shadow got old fast and became slightly more repetitive in it's tone. But I'll praise it for some good scares, it's creepy nature and it's ability to blend in History.

    The History feels fun but slightly rushed, but the Mummy story was interesting beforehand and was cool to see it add some History and scares. But the blender ain't blending a good episode.

    It gets a 4.25 because this one's slightly dull, and lacks any real impact for me.

    Well lit, Awfull acting though

    Now!, I know they are kids, but even the adults were not that good at acting either!, not the worst Goosebumps episode buy any means but still Awfully acted.

    CGI

    Has some of the best Cgi

    The tone is not too bad either.

    Graphic Design

    Looks great, and possibly one of the best in Goosebumps and fair enough.

    Not perfect but not bad, Average Goosebumps episode probably should of given it a 5/10 instead I gave it a 4/10 but it's not one of my favourites, pretty stale story all things considered. My least favourite Mummy story in Goosebumps, I like mummy episodes also films e.g. Doctor Who- Mummy on the orient Express, the Mummy movie. But this is a bit crap sorry!

    Worlds most well lit tomb

    For a tomb that's 4000 years old, there sure is a lot of lights hanging around. Solid goosebumps thriller, good effects on the mummy.
