All language subtitles for La venganza de la momia

The vengeance of the mummy

Thousands of years ago,

the Egyptian people spread their hegemony
of power and culture across the known world

during the 18th dynasty,

wearing upon his brow the white and red
tiaras of upper and lower Egypt,

reigned the pharaoh amenhotep.

These are bad times for
the Egyptian nation,

as the pharaoh is a brutal
being, despotic and cruel,

under whose cruel reign the
country moans and sighs

the Egyptian emperor

is a tyrant whose horrendous crimes tinge
the warm sands of the country blood red

Amenhotep murders lovely young women

to satisfy his repugnant and
in confessable appetites

No one, no matter how noble
and powerful they may be,

is safe from dying in the most cruel manner

to satisfy the mad pharaoh's whims

The pharaoh's reign is a hallucinatory
nightmare of blood and horror

joining him in his outrages is amarna,

the most beautiful of his concubines,

as cruel and bloodthirsty
as amenhotep himself

Nevertheless, the pharaoh
has a powerful enemy,

one that is astute and tenacious

and that has sworn to punish him

he is the only one able to
confront the sinister tyrant

we speak of am-sha, high priest of amon-ra

We've been destroyed lord, our men
lie forevermore on the battlefield

defeated?

My armies have been defeated in ramose,

overcome by the nubians

that damned semut,

who I should never have named general,

has led us to defeat

Go, dog!

Living god, calm your just rage

tomorrow we shall sacrifice ten virgins

and the next battle shall be propitious

Deje, bring me a drink

They've poisoned me

my body is losing strength,

only my mind remains clear

Amenhotep,

at last your reckoning has come

a punishment that won't be as terrible

as your crimes deserve,

because your evil, is infinite

you will wander in the world
of shadows eternally,

with neither rest or sustenance,

and you shall forever be denied

entry into the world of the dead

Anubis shall not weigh
your soul on his scales,

and it shall never join

the divinity of Isis and osiris

now the noble raotep shall take your place

and peace and prosperity
shall return to our country

damned am-sha,

I always knew you hated me,

but I am powerful and the
forces of evil shall help me

one day I will be free and I shall
unleash my hatred upon the world

I will recover my dear amarna and
we shall embrace in the shadows

my descendants shall hear my call

Dig

It's wonderful,

and it's intact Nathan, intact

it seems that way, there are no
signs of it having been desecrated

we've been lucky

Did you notice? This is something unusual

yes, there are no offerings
or food, only the sarcophagus

- however, this is a pharaoh
- There's no doubt,

these are the hallmarks of royalty

imagine, an unviolated tomb,

and of a pharaoh of the xviii dynasty

the foundation never dreamed
of owning such a piece

this will be a global event,

and we are the discoverers

surely that papyrus holds the
explanation to this mystery

we'll study it in London,
it will be exciting work

sir Douglas will collaborate with us,

it will be the greatest
accomplishment of his life

yes, and perhaps it will let
him forget his disgrace a bit

I am very proud of you,

my lessons have borne fruit

yes,

this is one of the greatest
archaeological discoveries

here are the pictures

I am eager to decipher this papyrus...

With your help, naturally

it's astounding, incredible

He's very happy

I've never seen father so
excited since the accident

I'm very happy too Helen,

I know you'll find it easier now

to free yourself of that feeling of guilt

I can never forget what happened,

he will always be tied to that wheelchair

the papyrus is related to
the tablet of bubastis!

The name amenhotep appears on both

and they doubted his existence,

but there, in that sarcophagus,

amenhotep has slept for thousands of years,

the cursed pharaoh

I have invited you to dinner tonight
because I have a surprise for you

No no, you don't have to accompany
me, I'm feeling quite well today

sit down, I need to go find something

It's alright meland

Here it is

I've finished the
translation of the papyrus

read it Nathan

amenhotep, that despicable monster,

brought the greatest disasters to Egypt

he made a pact with the 42 spirits of evil

and used them for his unspeakable purposes

he drank the blood of virgins,

ate human flesh at diabolical banquets
in honour of the renegade spirits

he killed and destroyed
without pause at his whim

amon-ra is just and powerful,

he gave us the strength to face the tyrant

and today during the seventh moon

the villains time of punishment has come

we will bury him alive
so that his black spirit

roams without peace or tranquillity,

tied to a putrefying body

his grave will be devoid of all
that the soul needs to live forever

in the land of the dead

amarna, his malignant lover,
has also been punished,

and her spirit won't find peace either

because no one will
mummify her ungodly body

in the seventh moon and
during the xviii dynasty,

am-sha, high priest of amon-ra

you'll have to forgive
me, my head hurts badly

goodnight - goodnight

Sometimes I don't understand her,

evidently her mother's blood has
overruled her english education

and my own blood

- she must have been an exceptional woman
- Yes

there were some who told me it was
madness to marry with an Egyptian woman,

some reproached me

in those days was not well looked upon
to marry a woman from the colonies

I don't know, perhaps they were right,

but no, I never regretted it

I spent the best years
of my life at her side

unfortunately... it all ended too soon

Please sir, touching any part
of the exhibition is forbidden

forgive me,

but it's so beautiful that
I couldn't contain myself

besides, the hall isn't open to the public

I'm sorry. May I speak
with professor stark?

I do not know if he's arrived

where can I find him?

- I came from Cairo to talk to him
- I'll ask

it's quite possible that he's in the
society's founder sir Douglas' quarters

lately they've been busy studying the
pieces that were brought from Egypt

Go into the living room
and wait a moment please

Professor Assad bey - sir

it's a pleasure - professor
stark, delighted to meet you

I came from Cairo when I
heard of your discovery

we will begin investigations on the
process of mummification within a month

why wait a month?

The news has aroused great interest
among scientists from various countries

and they've asked to attend

I've just seen a small table from the xviii
dynasty that seemed very interesting

it's ironic that we, the
native egyptologists,

have to travel around the world
to study our own civilization

I have the translation of that tablet

and it's a message left
by amenhotep himself

come in to the living room,
may I offer you a cup of tea?

Thank you

I decided a long ago to live in the
museum to be closer to my collection

This is the translation of
the message amenhotep left

it seems that the pharaoh had
a presentiment of his end

and wanted to ensure his vengeance

it goes like this:

I, amenhotep,

pharaoh of the two egyptks,

lord of the red crown,

lord of the white crown,

trust in who carries my blood and
is elected by the 42 spirits

to complete the rite and and so bring
me out of my state of helplessness

for this, he must sacrifice three maidens

and mix their blood with
sap from the plant of life

then, when the confluence
of the stars is propitious,

he will recite the kabbalah of sothis

and I will return to unite with him

later I will cause amarna
spirit incarnate again

and so obtain together the
eternal power of the 42 spirits.

I, amenhotep, pharaoh of Egypt

Memphis, xvllldynasty

it's curious how all the pieces fit

if it weren't for the fact that I
don't believe in curses or witchcraft

I would think that the power
of the pharaoh was real

Hurry, we're going to be late again

so what? I'm sick of Ms.
Barton and her stupid rules

you know what I say?

We should change residences or rent a
small house between the three of us

Anne, Mary! Come here please!

I've hurt myself, I can't walk!

Look

Oh almighty horus,

I invoke you to offer in
sacrifice the three maidens

that your worship demands

show your benevolence,

and pull from his torpor divine
my divine ancestor amenhotep,

lord of the headdress,
possessor of the two crowns,

pharaoh of Egypt!

Horus, favourite of osiris,

you who does not fear the power of amon-ra,

you who torment the souls of the dead

that will never reach the
land of their ancestors,

hear our prayers

so that the divine amenhotep may be freed

Your name please?

Ms. barton, Ms. Gloria barton

Age? - 35 years

excuse me? - Well, 42

profession?

Director of the victory
house residence for ladies

Well Ms. barton,

now be calm, and tell me what happened

it's horrible, horrible Mr. commissioner,
the three have disappeared,

and what am I to tell their families?

Calm down Ms. barton,

tell me how old these three young girls are

Annie and Peggy are 22, Mary's 19

at that age there are many reasons for a
lady to be missing from home for a few days

those are decent girls, I don't accept any
other kind of people in my residence,

- my house is a very honourable one!
- Of course

don't fear,

we will do our utmost to
find those young ladies,

and if they return, please
let us know immediately

Carmichael, please be so kind
as to see Ms. barton out

good day

No thank you, I don't want anymore

alright, I'll be going

goodbye - goodnight

well, I'm off to do my rounds - goodbye

Close the door, it'll get cold in here

Nathan

Nathan, dear, you work too much

I have to finish the report

alright, but promise me that when
you finish we'll take a vacation

Yes? Who is this?

What?

He disappeared? Dead? When did it happen?

It seems that it happened at midnight

On examing the cadaver they
discovered that he was covered

in dust that's only found
in a mummy's wrappings

on top of that the fingerprints don't
correspond to any living beings

the killers strength must be superhuman,

he almost crushed his skull

everything fits with the legend
of amenhotep, everything

that's absurd, incredible, a
mummy can't come back to life!

I wouldn't go that far

in our ancient civilization
there are untold mysteries,

it could be this is confirmation
of the curse of the tombs

do you remember the tragic death of
lord bracks and his entire expedition?

They violated the tombs of
thomoses lll and ramses il

that was a string of flukes,
just unlucky coincidences

yes, it could be

please Dorothy, put it on the table

Assad bey, you have been
chosen by the 42 spirits

to free me from my millennial immobility

I will give you power,
riches and eternal life

but first you must help me find a woman

whose body will be occupied
by amarna's tortured spirit

for thousands of years she has
suffered, wandering in the shadows

now she will come to my
side to punish those

who dared to violate the secrets of Egypt

and you shall as powerful as you may desire

I've gathered all the information I
could on the legend of amenhotep

and there are many curious things

for amenhotep to escape from the
immobility imposed on him by am-sha

the kabbalah of sothis must be recited

and his sarcophagus must be
doused in a mixture of blood

of three maidens sacrificed
on three consecutive nights

this will cause him to rise from his tomb

to obtain his freedom for good

another seven women must
die in a similar fashion

and amenhotep will be free forever

I see you're very worried about this
business, but it's a police matter

three girls have disappeared and I
fear that another seven will too

if Assad bey heard you he'd say the
pharaoh's curse was coming true

Assad bey is an enigmatic person about
whom we know nearly nothing about

perhaps it'd be a good idea
to learn something about him

We've arrived

I'm so happy George

- Do you like the house?
- It will be a marvellous home

Would you like to eat something? - No

Wait a moment before coming in

It's very humid tonight

this cold seeps into my bones

when one gets old...

I'm going to take the clothes to Mrs.
Morrison

I won't be long - so long daughter

Police! Police!

It's horrible!

Halt!

Don't worry maam, we'll find her

Don't worry

Officer brown, an envelope

It was a mistake, a lamentable mistake,

our authorities should never have allowed

that valuable piece of our culture

to leave Egypt

that's absurd, senseless

the theft of the mummy, those
girls who disappeared,

the legend of that cursed pharaoh

it's clear that a criminal mind wants us to
believe that amenhotep has come back to life

that's childish, it must
be the work of a madman

everyone knows a mummy
can't come back to life

An old legend says that lotus flowers

can Grant happiness and wisdom

it's an ancient tradition of our people

my mother cultivated them,
they're quite lovely

Helen, we haven't known each other
long but we share the same blood

and that allows me to
understand you much better

I know something very bitter tortures you

tell me about it Helen

I will be able to understand

my father is paralyzed and it's my fault

I didn't want him to go to that
party on that infernal night

he insisted on accompanying me

and on our way home, the horses slipped

and he became an invalid

Helen, it wasn't your fault,
everything is written

you mustn't torture yourself, believe me

sanofed! Let's go it's late

It's getting late, we have to leave

It's not that late

my parent's will scold me

it's always the same thing,

they have to accept that times
change, we're in the 20th century

- Tell me goodbye before you leave
- Goodbye

you know what I mean

At last I will have my absolute freedom

soon my beloved amarna
will be at my side again

I can't help it,

I have a feeling that Assad
bey is behind all this

honestly Nathan, I don't believe it

Assad seems to me to be a normal sort,

and I don't believe him capable
of wrongdoing no matter how small

I agree that he's strange,
introverted, mysterious,

but consider that his mindset is
different, he's of another race

but his upbringing is completely European

Helen has also been educated in Europe,

half of her blood is english, however
within her exists an undoubtable atavism

agreed, but it's something more than that!

There's something perverse
about Assad bey, disquieting

I think what's happened
has made you nervous

I'm sure this is the work
of a madman, but not him

when he arrived he showed great interest
in everything concerning the pharaoh,

despite his being an egyptologist
it seemed unbalanced

then, after the theft of the
mummy, his visits slowly lessened

he disappeared and we haven't had
word of him for over two weeks

it's very strange

he's not going to visit us everyday,
and besides, he could have left London

why don't you call him
and dispel your doubts?

You'll see there's a reasonable explanation

Please put me through to the
metropolitan hotel miss

great metropolitan hotel

I'd like to speak to professor Assad bey

I'm sorry sir but professor
bey is no longer here

is he still lodged there?

He still has his room reserved, but I
believe he's rented a home in the outskirts

close to the old mill - thank you

Assad lives in a house on the outskirts
now, but he still has a room at the hotel

let's pay him a visit,
it could be interesting

may I accompany you?

I'd like to see sanofed again

No Assad,

the spirit of amarna could
never reside in that body,

nor in this one!

Assad, a threat approaches

Come in please

What a pleasant surprise - and Assad?

He'll be here in a moment,
your visit will please him

Your silence worried us

I called your hotel and
they gave us this address

we planned to visit you one of these days

- why the move?
- Assad wanted to isolate himself,

he wants to write a book

welcome, you bring me great joy

sanofed, have you offered
our guests some coffee?

Or perhaps you'd prefer
tea, that's more British

I'd like some tea

and you Helen?

No, I don't want anything, thank you

what news do you bring?
Did the pharaoh turn up?

I reserved my room at the hotel

because I plan to visit
London once in a while

but I needed tranquillity
to be able to write

what are you writing about?

It's a study on the middle kingdom, I'll
dedicate a chapter to your discovery

please sanofed, bring me all
the material I've written

if you need more information
you know I'm at your service

I might need you though you've
already given me so much

I'm very grateful

for all the information you've provided

It's a shame we didn't
get to study the mummy,

and it'd be a catastrophe
if the madman who stole it

were to damage or destroy it

let's trust that it will turn up intact

for what reason could it have been stolen?

What will they do with it?

Scotland yard is very efficient,

they'll find it, I'm absolutely certain

Would you like to see my little greenhouse?
I cultivate lotus too

come, let's go

This is my books manuscript

sanofed, your words helped me very much

I'm glad that was the case

I'll be by your side
whenever you may need me

about my father's accident...

I didn't tell you everything

my mother had an Egyptian lover

he had found out all about it

that party was very important to my mother,

she had planned to meet that man
so they could run away together

I understood that love,

that's why when my father arrived I
wanted to intervene on her behalf,

but he managed to convince
her to return to his side

when we were going back home

the accident happened

my mother died

I've never forgiven him

if he had let her go she'd still be alive

Helen, I feel a special affection towards
you that I wouldn't be able to explain

and I wouldn't want anything
bad to happen to you

let me give you some advice:

Distance yourself from us,

from Assad bey and myself

distance yourself

that woman

is amarna! I

I need her!

She will accompany me eternally

I can't believe it, what reason could
Assad have to commit all those crimes?

I don't know, but I'm sure the
key to all this is in his house

I have to get in there and search it

what are you trying to say?

We'll watch the area, and when
they leave we'll try to get in

I'm sure I'm not mistaken!

You're obsessed with that idea

we'll go this very night,

that is, if you want to come
with me, if not I'll go alone

I'l go with you,

surely we'll end up at the police
station for breaking and entering

I don't know, I can't help it,

but I'm sure Assad bey
is the one responsible

for everything that's been happening

do you have some proof, some evidence?

What you allege is very serious

I don't know, there's
something I don't understand

- that afternoon when we were in his home
- I'm going to go lie down,

I'm very tired. Goodnight - goodnight

wouldn't it be better to tell the
police about your suspicions?

That's what I think

I'll do it when I have the slightest proof

- shall we go Abigail?
- Yes, whenever you please

then goodnight - goodnight

Thank you

- Does the gentleman need anything else?
- No, you can go

goodnight sir

Nathan, this is useless, we should leave

no, this is our opportunity,
everyone's gone. Let's go

Wait here

Please Nathan, this is absurd

we'll come back. We have to get in there

No, it's not possible!

Calm down, calm down

Helen has disappeared, we
should call the police

Assad, he dominates you completely
and separates you from me

he's using us,

and later he'll destroy us or what's worse,

he will make us into his slaves

I carry his blood, his very blood

and he'll respect me, he'll
Grant me infinite power

he will make me immortal

the night of the final rite is approaching

we'll mummify Helen

and amarna will ind her shell

afterwards we'll be more
powerful than life or death

we'll possess all the secrets of the lost
civilizations, the world will be ours,

and the dominion of the
pharaohs will rise once again

Professor stark,

a hunch isn't sufficient
cause for the police

there isn't enough evidence
to order a search warrant

and besides, Mr. bey is a foreign subject,

it could cause a very delicate situation

but I'm sure that the necessary
proof is in that house!

We have different proof that
leads us very far from him

commissioner, it's very clear

he's a maniacal fanatic, he performs
blood rites before that dusty mummy,

believe me!

That's just a theory, and
Scotland yard requires proof,

we'll ask for more information
from his homeland

you can be sure we'll do everything
necessary once we have that in our hands

good day professor

The astral conjunction is propitious
and we shall perform the great rite

we will mummify this body and
amarna's spirit will enter it

you shall be rewarded Assad

for the great ritual of sothis
I want sanofed's blood,

that's why I ask you to sacrifice her,

that way I can be sure you deserve
everything I shall give you,

only in that way

We have to get in by any means

it will be dangerous

follow me

Idiots!

Now you know my secret

that will cost you your lives

tonight you will be sacrificed
at the great ritual

let's go

Commissioner, we've received the
file on Assad bey from Cairo

Come with me, and have three men come too

where is sanofed?

I need her blood

I don't suppose you've
decided to betray me?

I would never do that

where is she? What is she doing?

Watching the prisoners

bring them all immediately

We have to find Helen

Let's go

Sergeant

Look for a way in

Peters, Jones, that way,
brown, come with me

Lord!

Professor stark,

is this the mummy that disappeared
from the lassbury foundation?

But sir... quiet you

is this it?

Yes commissioner, this is the mummy

The end
