Product Description:
In 1923, legendary director Cecil B. DeMille constructed a replica of ancient Egypt in the California desert for his epic movie The Ten Commandments. When filming was completed, he mysteriously ordered the entire set buried. Now a soon-to-be-divorced archaeologist couple (Morena Baccarin and Adam Baldwin of Serenity and Firefly) and an Iraq War combat veteran (Victor Webster of Charmed) have uncovered the secret DeMille could not keep hidden...and unleashed a horror that cannot be stopped. Dan Castellaneta (The Simpsons), John Aniston (Days Of Our Lives) and Academy Award® winner George Kennedy co-star in this Director s Cut featuring additional footage not seen in the original cable broadcast.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Superior Story Telling, Great Originality, And Fun Entertainment: Mixing Science Fiction, Humor, Drama, Adventure And "Horror"
When I spend six hours surfing the net to find information about, or related to the content of, a film, I would have to say that that film "engaged" me--and for me that is what the best movies do, regardless of their status as a film.

And the more I "research," ... Read More

About 80 years later, it is dug up by someone who was at the original set. A few archaeologists are also at hand digging the site up, the god is released, chaos ensues, heroes save the day.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not what I expected
The plot of the was good. The actors were not bad either, but I can honestly say if I were able to preview this movie I would not have bought it.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - It's So Bad It's Funny
SciFi Channel movie. It's what you'd expect. Only worse. The "monster" is hilariously low-budget and the "romantic tension" is laughable.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - New Age Mythology
A fun spin on Egyptian and American Mythology. Fun story with great acting and a steller cast. one of the few good sci-fi channel originals.

The story is That during the Filming of the Film Classic "The Ten Commandments" that some of the props were actual cursed artifacts that released a avenging spirit many years later after the site is uncovered by acheologists studing the films artifacts. The avanging Spirit is explained to be the Hand OF Set, The god of Desert and Infertility who in battle with ... Read More
