  • You Have +1000 CP to Spend. Backgrounds Drop In- You Have No History Or Memories of This World to Help Or Hinder You
    A Jumpchain CYOA Thousands of years ago, the high priest of the pharaoh Seti the First, Imhotep, murdered his lord after he entered an adulterous relationship with Seti’s concubine, Anck-Su-Namun. Imhotep’s lover committed suicide when their crime was discovered, but Imhotep would not let death be the end of their love. Using the Book of the Dead, Imhotep attempted to resurrect her. But he and his priests were discovered and stopped by the Medjai; the pharaoh’s bodyguards. Imhotep and his priests were mummified alive, and Imhotep himself was given the Hum-Dai; a curse so terrible that should its victim ever arise, they would bring with them the Ten Plagues of Egypt. Buried in his sarcophagus with flesh-eating scarabs that slowly devoured his flesh, Imhotep’s mummified body waited in his dark tomb in Hamunaptra, the City of the Dead… The year is now 1923. Rick O’Connell, a member of the French Foreign Legion and the rest of his garrison are about to be attacked by a group of Tuareg warriors at Hamunaptra. In the aftermath of the battle, Rick will find a peculiar box in the ruins… inadvertently setting the course for Imhotep’s return. You have +1000 CP to spend. Backgrounds Drop In- You have no history or memories of this world to help or hinder you. Rather than relying on skill, knowledge, or supernatural powers, you rely more on chance and fate, as well as the help of others. Choice of starting in England, America, France, China, Egypt or Peru.

  • La-Momia.Pdf
    La momia Stephen Sommers 1999 La máquina de sueños que es el cine también ha entrado en las bibliotecas. En las últimas décadas, guionistas y directores han convertido esos lugares cerrados, adormecidos, en escenarios de aventuras de todo tipo. Las bibliotecas aparecen en las películas de amor, de aventuras o de ciencia ficción, por ejemplo. Los bibliotecarios y las bibliotecarias han pasado de ser seres recluidos entre libros a convertirse en detectives, sabios o magos capaces de hacernos comprender sus sentimientos, de revelarnos una imagen distinta de la profesión, de emocionarnos con su rol social. El cine ha roto, en parte, el cliché, la imagen que se tiene, en general, de las bibliotecas. Y nos gusta. La protagonista de La Momia , interpretada por Rachel Weisz, es una bibliotecaria joven, inteligente y con sentido del humor que se aleja del estereotipo de solterona, con gafas y pelo recogido, dedicada a su trabajo y fosilizada en su universo libresco. Es la autentica vedette, el personaje principal de la película. La Momia se estrenó en 1999 con un éxito inesperado de recaudación. Se trata de una cinta de aventuras que se sitúa en el año 1926. La historia transcurre en Egipto —los exteriores se rodaron en Marruecos, las escenas del desierto son una delicia— y explica las vicisitudes de Evelyn Carnahan, bibliotecaria del Museo Egipcio de El Cairo, quien junto con su hermano descubre una cajita procedente de Hamunaptra, lugar mítico y desconocido. Con la ayuda de Rick O’Connell, un ex soldado de la Legión Francesa, intentaran llegar a ese remoto lugar y descubrir los tesoros que supuestamente allí se encuentran.

Indeed, ancient Egyptian funeral rites, and embalming in particular, were only one of the earliest and most striking instances of an essential human drive to escape death and oblivion. The choice of this metaphor by Bazin can be explained by a common history as well as a number of shared features between Egyptology and the budding practice of filmmaking and film- watching at the end of the nineteenth century, as Antonia Lant argues in “The Curse of the Pharaoh, or How Cinema Contracted Egyptomania”.

From epic blockbusters to Grade B thrillers to softporn, Egypt provides an exotic setting for a wide range of stories. This Hollywood Egyptomania draws heavily on the popularity of ancient Egypt in the fineand decorative arts, a phenomenon that goes back to the fascination of a future emperor, Napoleon Bonaparte, for past glories. The first multidisciplinary team of scholars accompanied his 1798 military expedition to Egypt. The magnificent publications of 1802-1828 sparked a timeless interest in all things ancient Egyptian. Newly opened national museums and wealthy collectors had to have something from Egypt. Architects built in pharaonic style, and Wedgwood made tea sets with Egyptian themes (Humbert et al. 1994). No trip to a museum or Egypt was complete without a close encounter with a mummy.

  • "Vers Mes Dix Ans, J'allais Souvent Voir Des Films Avec Un Groupe D'amis. Si Nous Voyions Le Logo De Hammer Films Nous Savi
    "Vers mes dix ans, j'allais souvent voir des films avec un groupe d'amis. Si nous voyions le logo de Hammer Films nous savions que cela allait être un film très spécial... une expérience surprenante, bien souvent- et choquante ". (M. Scorsese, dans " The Studio That Dripped Blood ") En mai 1957, un film d'horreur britannique intitulé "The Curse of Frankenstein " (" La Malédiction de Frankenstein ") sortait dans les salles obscures londoniennes. Ce film fit de Christopher Lee et de Peter Cushing des stars internationales et de la Hammer Films, une maison de production de renomée mondiale. A cette époque, la Hammer sortait 5 films par ans, puisant largement (selon certains, peut-être trop...) dans la "matière gothique" et des grands mythes littéraires auxquels elle a donné naissance. Pourtant, l'histoire de la Hammer ne commence pas là... L'initiateur de cette compagnie légendaire est Enrique Carreras qui naquit en Espagne en 1880. Il émigra en Angleterre où il ouvrit un théatre qui sera considéré comme un des premiers multi-plex. Il comptait en effet deux salles ("Blue Halls"), permettant donc de projeter des films différents, et qui offraient 2000 places assises. A la fin des années 1920, Carrera créa une compagnie permettant la distribution de films anglais : l'Exclusive Films. A cette même époque commença à poindre la mode du vaudeville, avec en tête de file la compagnie "Hammer and Smith", dirigée par William Hinds. En 1932, Carreras s'associa avec Hinds et assurèrent les droits de distribution de nombre de films (en particulier ceux de la Brittish Lion). Finalement, ils décidèrent de créer une compagnie détachée et destinée à distribuer les films de l'Exclusive.
