Was diese Frau so alles treibt -- grandios und temporeich in Szene gesetzt von No ..."

"Eines muss man lebenden Toten zu Gute halten: was sie an Geschwindigkeit und Agilität vermissen lassen, machen sie durch dumpfe Entschlossenheit wett. Der ägyptische Hohepriester Im-Ho-Tep, der vor langer Zeit wegen seiner Verbrechen gegen die Götter verflucht wurde, ist ein solcher Fall. Eine britische Ausgrabungsexpedition stößt auf seinen Sarkophag. Auf einer Truhe finden sie eine Inschrift, die Tod und Verwüstung prophezeit, sollte ..."
