The Pharaoh's Curse

If ancient Egypt had indeed been as messy and sex-filled as this, Moses and the group probably would have stuck around a bit longer. The Pharaoh’s Curse is a rather ambitious try at retelling the elder story with a homoerotic twist. Armed with a generally charming cast, the film moves from ancient Egypt to modern day America to tell the story of a pheromone-soaked garb which sends its sniffers into a state of uncontrollable sexual longing. Things do get a bit overblown (no pun intended) at times, but overall the film is pretty artfully done. One of the main problems is the lighting. Thought the effects can be cool, too regularly many of the vignettes tend to be a little too dark to watch exactly what’s going on. A prime instance is the outdoor four-way blowjob/fuckfest. You dream someone would just turn on a flashlight so you could entirely appreciate the group rub in all its splendor. Speaking of groups, just about every episode involves trio or 4 people, so if you think more is merrier, then get ready to hunker down for some serious self-manipulation. All in all a job well done by director Thor Stephens.
