It’s 1922, and free-spirited archaeologist Danny Freemont (Casper Van Dien, Sleepy Hollow) is infamous for his outlandish theories about the pyramids, Atlantis, alien civilizations, and the Egyptian Book of the Dead. He may enliven the lectures at Cairo University, but he certainly infuriates serious Egyptologists like the beautiful Dr. Azelia Barakat (Leonora Varela, Cleopatra)—especially when it comes to his speculations about the life and death of Tutankhamen. Freemont is certain that if found, the Emerald Tablet, rumoured to be buried in Tut’s tomb, would hold the power to control the world. Unfortunately, the only one who believes Freemont is nefarious archaeologist Morgan Sinclair (Jonathan Hyde, Titanic), a member of the diabolical secret cabal known as the Hellfire Council.
