The wraps come off in this triple set of adventure films. In 'The
Mummy' (1999), Brendan Fraser plays Rick O'Connell, an American who
discovers Hamunaptra, the city of the dead. He is driven away by
locals and arrested. Three years later, Englishman Jonathan (John
Hannah) discovers an ancient artefact which he gives to his sister
Evelyn (Rachel Weisz). In turn, she trades the artefact for Rick's
release from prison and the trio set off for Hamunaptra, hoping to
arrive there before Beni (Kevin J. O'Connor), Rick's crooked former
associate. However Beni has already invoked a curse which frees
Imhotep, a supernaturally-gifted mummy. He pursues the adventurers
across the land, feeding upon the flesh of unfortunate explorers.
He aims to sacrifice Evelyn, hoping to resurrect another evil
mummy... In 'The Mummy Returns' (2001), Rick (Fraser) and Evie
(Weisz) have now settled down to married life in London with their
8-year-old son Alex (Freddie Boath). Meanwhile, the British museum
is playing host to the corpse of Imhotep, the mummy which had
previously given Rick and Evie such a hard time. When ancient magic
brings Imhotep back to life, a chain of events is set in motion
that will lead to the end of the world, thus forcing Rick and Evie
to dust-off their mummy-defeating skills once again. Finally, in
'The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor' (2008), the action moves to
China, where for 2,000 years, the ruthless Chinese Dragon Emperor
(Jet Li) and his vast army of warriors have been frozen in time,
cast in clay, waiting for their moment to rise again. When young
archaeologist Alex O'Connell (Luke Ford) is duped into bringing the
ancient warlord back to life, he soon realises he has to call in
the only people he knows with experience and knowledge of how to
battle the undead - his parents, father Rick (Fraser) and mother
Evelyn (Maria Bello). As the emperor attempts to reunite with his
massed warriors and finally fulfil his dream of world domination,
Alex and his family, along with mystical, high-kicking sorceress Zi
Juan (Michelle Yeoh) and a rival cast of undead, have to pull out
all the stops to keep the evil tyrant from achieving his ends.

All 3 movies packed into a single bluray cover which means more shelf room,the artwork is great and the movies themselves are excellent and the picture and sound quality is second to none for an aged franchise.I recommend this to all bluray collectors out there its really a great buy.
