In this horrific start to Halloween 2025, Stuart and Jacob embark on a thrilling adventure through the sands of time as they compare the original 1932 classic "The Mummy" with its 1999 blockbuster remake. They dig deep into the lackluster atmosphere of the early Universal monster film, featuring Boris Karloff's iconic performance, and contrast it with the action-packed Fraser romp that quickly became quite the sensation. What elements of horror and charm persist in both of these? How do the characters and their motivations differ across the decades? And just why does Jacob find 1999 a bit too... busy?

Also featured in this episode are discussions on "Hollow Knight: Silksong", the charm of Universal's monster movies, when exactly it's time to trim the character fat, and a ranking of these classic monsters. All this and more on They Remade It!
