Nel 1719 a. C. a Tebe in Egitto nasce un amore proibito tra il gran sacerdote Imhotep e l'amante del faraone. La ragazza per la disperazione si uccide e il sacerdote si lascia andare a gesti disperati suscitando l'ira degli dei. Le divinità gli infliggono una tremenda condanna: venire sepolto vivo nella città di Hamunaptra. 1923: Rick O'Connell, giovane legionario, Evelyn, una bibliotecaria e Jonathan, suo fratello, sono alla ricerca del favoloso tesoro di Imhotep. Suscitano l'ira della Mummia provocando il suo risveglio.
