The External ★★ Michael Almerey-da's The Mummy; Trance 1999 (R)

Alcoholic Nora (Elliott) keeps experiencing strange trances that have nothing to do with her drinking. So, Nora, her husband (Harris) and their young son travel to Ireland to visit Nora's freaky uncle (Walken) in hopes of some kind of explanation. Yep, it all has something to do with a 2,000-year-old druid he's keeping in the basement of the family castle. No, it doesn't make much sense. 95m/C VHS, DVD . Alison Elliott, Jared Harris, Christopher Walken, Karl Geary; D: Michael Almereyda.
