	Movies - Mummies Alive!

Mummies Alive! was a cartoon made by DIC in the late 1990s. It is about a group of Egyptian warriors who come back to life in contemporary San Fransisco to protect a young boy who is a reincarnation of a Prince they served.

In ancient Egypt, an evil sorceror, Scarab, tries to kill the pharaoh's son, Prince Rapses, so he can use the boy's soul to become immortal. Entombed alive for his crime, Scarab revives in the modern world and begins his search for Rapses' reincarnation, a San Francisco-dwelling boy named Presley Carnavon. Rapses' bodyguards, Ja-Kal, Rath, Armon, and Nefertina, rise from the dead to protect him from Scarab. Each of the mummies is aligned with the power of an Egyptian god and are able to call upon it for magical armor and powers to fight superhuman evildoers, although once their strength is exhausted they must rest in their sarcophagi to regain the ability.

In addition to Scarab, the mummies often had to contend with gods and spirits from Egyptian myth summoned to the modern world, including Anubis, Set, Geb, Apep, Bast, Sekhmet and Bez, usually as part of one of Scarab's schemes that went out of his control.

There was one season of forty episodes.
