00:06Inside lies a sarcophagus, blackened and bound with ancient chains etched with warnings.

00:12Archaeologist Dr. Lena Cade ignores local superstitions and orders it opened.

00:17Ra, when the sarcophagus cracks, a blast of sand and insects fills the chamber.

00:22Something old, hungry, and furious awakens.

00:25The curse-reborn strange phenomena begin immediately.

00:28Team members hallucinate whispers in forgotten tongues.

00:32A swarm of scarabs devours one worker alive, leaving only bones.

00:36The expedition flees, but the sarcophagus vanishes into thin air.

00:40At the same time, storms begin ravaging Cairo, carrying with them the scent of decay.

00:45Lena suspects they've unleashed a curse bound by the gods themselves.

00:49The return home Lena smuggles fragments of artifacts back to London despite her team's growing fear.

00:55Her mentor, Dr. Harrow, warns her that the glyphs belong to Set, the god of chaos.

01:00That night, Lena dreams of drowning in sand as a skeletal figure approaches her.

01:06She wakes to find a room filled with dust and insects crawling from the walls.

01:10The curse has followed her.

01:11First resurrection at the British Museum, the fragments fuse together, reforming into the stolen sarcophagus.

01:17A guard investigates, but is ripped apart by unseen claws.

01:23The mummy rises, its skin burned and peeling, sand spilling from every crack.

01:27Its mouth opens unnaturally wide, screaming with the sound of countless voices.

01:32The curse begins to spread through the city.

01:35The dead walk bodies in the museum morgue twitch and rise, their mouths filled with sand.

01:39These reanimated husks hunt Lena, whispering her name in hollow voices.

01:44She narrowly escapes with Harrow, who confesses the glyphs warned of a one chosen.

01:49The mummy is hunting her specifically.

01:51Lena is both horrified and drawn to the truth.

01:54She is part of the prophecy.

01:56Cairo and Flames news spreads of sandstorms sweeping across cities, burying streets in minutes.

02:02Survivors report seeing shadowy figures in the dust, tearing people apart.

02:06Lena realizes the curse is not contained.

02:08It is global.

02:10Harrow reveals an ancient order once kept the mummy bound, but its bloodline died out centuries ago.

02:16Unless they reseal the creature, humanity is doomed.

02:19The marking Lena discovers a scar on her wrist shaped like an eye, burned into her skin since the tomb's opening.

02:26The mark allows her to see glimpses of the mummy's past.

02:29Once a high priest condemned for betraying the gods, buried alive and cursed to burn forever.

02:34His goal is not conquest, but annihilation to burn the world as he burned.

02:40The mummy strikes the mummy hunts Lena through London's underground tunnels.

02:44Its body is half-human, half-charred bone, wrapped in molten bandages that smolder like fire.

02:50Every surface it touches ignites or rots instantly.

02:54Lena and Harrow barely escape by collapsing part of the tunnel, but dozens die in the chaos.

02:59The mummy grows stronger with each soul it consumes.

03:02The Order of the Burning Eye, a secret cult, emerges, worshipping the mummy as Set's chosen avatar.

03:08They carve their bodies with fire-scorched runes, offering themselves willingly to be devoured.

03:13Lena infiltrates their hideout, only to learn they see her as the vessel destined to merge with the mummy.

03:18The cult's chants summon plagues, locusts, swarms, and rivers of blood.

03:24Humanity begins collapsing into panic.

03:26The scholar's betrayal, Dr. Harrow, reveals he has been working with the cult all along.

03:31He believes the mummy's return is inevitable and wants to use Lena to control it.

03:36Devastated? Lena flees as Harrow delivers her location to the creature.

03:41That night, she is dragged into a cathedral overtaken by sand where the mummy finally confronts her.

03:47Its burned face hovers inches from hers, whispering,

03:50You are mine.

03:51A city buried London falls under siege.

03:54Buildings collapse as sand devours the city block by block.

03:58Lena escapes the cathedral, but millions are dead or turned into sand husks.

04:02Military forces intervene, unleashing bombs, but the mummy reforms from ash and bone each time.

04:08Lena realizes no weapon of man can kill it.

04:11Only the gods' fire can.

04:12The tomb of Set following fragmented visions, Lena travels back to Egypt,

04:17seeking the tomb of Set hidden beneath the Valley of the Kings.

04:20Inside, she finds murals depicting a ritual of sacrifice, binding the mummy with a mortal soul.

04:27The markings on her arm glow as the tomb walls tremble.

04:30The truth becomes clear.

04:32Lena was chosen not to kill the mummy, but to become its prison.

04:35The burning sands the mummy and its cult pursue Lena into the desert.

04:38At night, the dunes rise like waves, swallowing whole caravans.

04:43The cult chants in ecstasy as the mummy's power grows, creating burning tornadoes of sand.

04:49Lena flees into the tomb, finding weapons forged with divine metal glowing faintly in the darkness.

04:55They are humanity's last chance.

04:57Showdown in the tomb, the mummy enters the tomb, its presence shattering stone walls.

05:01Lena wields the divine blade, hacking through hordes of cultists.

05:04The mummy tears through traps effortlessly, regenerating each wound.

05:09Harrow reappears, pleading for Lena to join them, but she drives the blade through his chest.

05:15His body crumbles to ash as the mummy roars in rage.

05:18The ritual of fire Lena performs the ancient ritual,

05:22chanting words she doesn't understand as the blade glows with white fire.

05:26The mummy lunges, clawing her body, breaking bones.

05:29She forces the blade into its chest, but it only grows more powerful, absorbing the fire.

05:34The only way to finish the ritual is to bind herself willingly.

05:38She hesitates, then accepts her fate.

05:41Sacrifice Lena plunges the blade into her own heart, fusing her soul with the mummies.

05:46Their bodies merge into a horrifying half-human, half-burning corpse.

05:50For a moment, she sees into its mind the endless torment of burning alive for eternity.

05:56Her scream merges with its roar as the tomb explodes in blinding fire.

06:01The silence after the desert is quiet.

06:03The cult lies in ruins, burned to dust.

06:05The sandstorms vanish, leaving scorched earth.

06:08Soldiers find the tomb collapsed with no sign of Lena or the mummy.

06:13The Necronomicon-like blade is missing.

06:15Survivors whisper that the gods have finally claimed their vengeance.

06:19The world reacts, cities begin rebuilding,

06:21but whispers spread of new plagues and distant lands.

06:24Scholars argue whether the mummy was destroyed or merely sealed again.

06:29The British Museum hides its remaining artifacts, terrified of another awakening.

06:33The media dubs the disaster the burning night.

06:36Humanity breathes, but uneasily.

06:39Lena's awakening deep beneath the desert.

06:41Lena awakens in darkness, her body fused with sand and ash.

06:45Her eyes glow like fire as whispers echo in her head.

06:48She realizes she is neither fully human nor fully monster.

06:52The gods gave her a choice.

06:54Protect the world or burn it.

06:56She screams, the sand trembling around her.

06:59Epilogue, the burning eye in a distant temple cult survivors kneel before a shrine man.

07:03A single eye, carved from obsidian, opens within the sand.

07:07A voice whispers, the prison is weak.

07:10Soon the fire will rise again.

07:12The camera pans upward, showing endless dunes shifting as though breathing.

07:15The mummy is not dead.

07:16It is waiting.

07:17It is waiting.
