Bubba Ho-Tep

Director - Don Coscarelli
Starring - Bruce Campbell, Ossie Davis, Ela Joyce

Bubba Hotep is a fantastic low-budget horror comedy starring Bruce Campbell. Set in a retirement home where people are mysteriously dying two of the incumbents must battle a 3,000 year old mummy from ancient Egypt in order to save their souls. This is a surreal film which combines a number of funny ideas and characters. Indeed the characters are what make this film. The two heroes are infinitely more interesting than the lurking evil and this is largely down to tremendous acting performances from Bruce Campbell as Elvis and Ossie Davis as JFK. Bubba Hotep is a hugely enjoyable movie and worth seeing for Campbell's Elvis alone.
