Lee Cronin's The Mummy

Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026)

Lee Cronin reinvents The Mummy as a brutal, deeply personal family horror story packed with relentless tension, disturbing body horror, and some of the nastiest practical effects we’ve seen in years. Beneath all the gore is an emotional story about grief, family, and what happens when the monster you fear most is someone you love.
