Product Description

Product Description

Boston professor Johan Meyer, an eminent anthropologist is highly regarded for his translations of Egyptian tablets. Approached to evaluate an ancient text, his mysterious client requires urgency so Johan works around the clock. As the hours pass, strange occurrences take place as Johan's dreams become drenched in bizarre visions. It all seems a strange coincidence until the translation is almost at an end. It is only then that Johan realizes the parchment contains a ritual that brings to life the Queen of the Underworld, thus awakening the dead and plunging the world into eternal darkness.

By I. R. Kerr TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on 26 Mar. 2016
Format: DVD
You'll find this largely obscure film on imdb as The Foe and as the end credits role it is also titled The Second Reign of Night. It's a new movie despite the name changes but the change to The Curse is obviously to fool people into believing they are buying an Omen style horror film.
The film opens with two separate confusing albeit connected scenes several years apart, one in Iraq the other in Italy before moving to present day Barcelona,
Archaeologist Johan is hired to translate an old tablet found in the ancient city of Nippur. He is going through some tough financial times so does not question the job at first and discovers the inscription is an invocation to open the gates of Ereshkigal the ancient Mesopotamian underworld, There are odd appearances of sand everywhere and the occasional odd glimpse of something dark.
There are some interesting ideas here but it does not have enough gravitas impact to pull it all together into a cohesive whole, the one dimensional FBI agent should have been left out for a start.
I've read quite a bit about the epic of Gilgamesh which has oblique links to this story, despite what the DVD cover says there is nothing related to Egypt here, it is all about Babylonian mythology. Obviously the blurb writer couldn't even be bothered to watch it himself or fell asleep part way through.
There are no extras.

Absolutely awful. Low budget and badly written. The acting is not too bad but the story is just ridiculous. I spent the entire movie waiting for something to happen and nothing did, and the ending is just silly. A guy is paid by some old guy to translate and ancient Babylonian tablet. The synopsis of the movie states that he is an expert on translating Egyptian texts, but in the movie it is Babylonian. The writing on the tablet is part of a an ancient ritual to open the gates of hell. The man then begins to experience vivid dreams and to see apparitions of a women who vanishes suddenly. Nothing very original.

Don't waste your time - Over-acted (the FBI agent is just about the worse over the top acting I've EVER seen!) and story just never gets going. What's with the woman strolling about every so often? Why does he have to keep messing with the computer during the scanning/translation process as it appears to be entirely automated - just leave it alone man!. Film just ends when you eventually think there might be some action. Absolutely dire.
