10 Plagues of Egypt in "The Mummy" movie(s)

[edit]

Which of the 10 plagues do they reference? i know a couple of them, but it seems that the movie deviated from the original 10. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.34.7.67 (talk) 01:57, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia article Plagues of Egypt covers all ten; i've not recently seen the movie, but if you have access to it, or have recently seen it to where you remember all the details, you can compare it yourself. --Jayron32 02:36, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
For an interpretation all ten plagues, I heartily recommend The Abominable Dr. Phibes.--Shantavira|feed me 09:11, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The Mummy Wiki suggests there were 7 shown. I've found a few posts in web forums[1][2] and most of them say you see about 7 plagues, with the rest either halted by the killing of the big bad, or taking place off-screen. (None of this is up to Wikipedia's usual high standards of what counts as a reputable source, but I hope it's of use.) --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:47, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
