Lee Cronin's The Mummy

No LGBTQ+ characters appear or are identified. The narrative centers on a heterosexual family unit confronting a supernatural threat, leaving queer identities entirely absent from the story.

Charlie drives the investigation and translation work, positioning him as the primary agent. Detective Zaki is competent, but Larissa remains largely reactive to the crisis surrounding her daughter.

The cast blends white, Middle Eastern, and Latinx actors. Detective Zaki is a prominent Egyptian figure with narrative depth, while Carmen, a Latinx grandmother, plays a key support role.

The film leans heavily on Catholic and ancient Egyptian religious elements, including exorcism themes. Western institutions like the police are helpful but initially suspicious of the family’s situation.

Katie exhibits severe psychological trauma and self-harm after her abduction. Her condition functions mainly as a horror plot device rather than a nuanced portrayal of mental health.
