SYNOPSIS: Somewhere in South America, a mummy is dug up. Treasure hunters hijack it and fly it to America to sell it to the highest bidder. Meanwhile, back in Vermont, a bunch of douche-bag ski patrol guys party; one gets really hammered and cheats on his girlfriend. After far too long of impressing us with just how absolutely terrible everyone in this movie is (this is the kind of movie that has four characters identified in the credits as "T-Shirt Girl"), the treasure hunters' plane crashes into the mountain above the ski resort, causing an avalanche trapping everyone inside, and unleashing the mummy to wander around doing interpretive modern dance moves and occasionally ripping the hearts out of passing douche-bags. Unfortunately, there are survivors. By about the 40 minute mark, you wish you weren't one of them.
