39. The Mummy (Lee Cronin’s version, April 17, 2026)
Director Lee Cronin (Evil Dead Rise) revives the classic monster franchise with a fresh, terrifying take starring Jack Reynor, Laia Costa, and May Calamawy in a story of ancient curses, archaeological horrors, and undead chaos. Blending practical effects with modern scares, it promises gothic atmosphere, jump scares, and a new spin on the iconic mummy lore.
Horror fans (Gen Z loving the revival trend, Millennials nostalgic for the Brendan Fraser era) are hyped for the body horror and adventure elements. Expect sandstorms of terror, wrapped-up villains, and that classic “don’t open the tomb” tension — a monster movie revival that’ll dominate spring discussions!
