• Lee Cronin's The Mummy is coming to HBO Ma on July 3
• The horror movie is a reimagining of the iconic Mummy franchise
• It follows a mummified young girl who is returned to her family eight years after she disappeared

Lee Cronin's The Mummy is heading to HBO Max on July 3, making it one of the huge new movies heading to the streaming service that month.

The horror movie is a reimagining of The Mummy franchise and features Nasmaranian, an ancient Egyptian demon that possesses victims. The chilling story follows a family who are reunited with their long-missing, mummified daughter, only to learn something is very wrong with her.

This is a much gorier take on the story than the famous Mummy series starring Brendan Fraser, and the movie features scenes of body horror and plenty of great scares.

Take a look at the trailer ahead of its streaming debut.

Lee Cronin's The Mummy was a box office hit, but divided the critics

Plenty of horror fans flocked to see Lee Cronin's The Mummy when it was in theaters, and the movie earned $90 million back from its $22 million budget.

Audiences and critics were left divided by the horror movie, with its two Rotten Tomatoes' scores being wildly different. Critics only awarded Lee Cronin's The Mummy a 45% Tomatometer score, with the consensus being that it was gory and scary, but dragged on too long and relied on cliches and jump scares too much.
