I love this movie so much

Wow! Such a good movie.

Very best movie i ever watch

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

When a crew accidentally unearths a long-lost film set from an Ancient Egyptian epic, they unleash a long-contained creature into the nearby desert and race to stop it before it completes it's mission of vengeance for being awakened.This one manages to have some rather nice moments from it. A lot of what makes the film work is that there's some nice action scenes along the way here, which manage to give the film a really fantastic pace throughout here. The opening flashback showing the ancient Egyptians conjuring up the demon on the battlefield and battling the army of soldiers before finally burying it away in the sand-storm for the actual entertainment rite, the first encounter in the pit under the sand-dunes where it reawakens and attacks in fine form and the entry way into the crypt is highly enjoyable with the suspenseful crawl through the opening into the lavish main chamber before the the attack where it lurches out of the shadows to ambush them before being driven off in a flurry of action that's really enjoyable. Even later attacks, from the guard attacks on the transport route to the great beach scenes and even the longer, involved attacks as the encounter with the seductive demon-figure and the locust attack at the mote give this one some exciting and really thrilling action along with managing to give this a perfect base for the rousing, energetic finale. From the frantic dune-buggy chase through the woods out into the desert sand, a series of great brawls at the excavation site and finally the big battle at the end with the big creature and the reanimated sculptures on the wall all coming together with a couple rather suspenseful stalking scenes and even some gory deaths thrown in. As well, it's pretty nice to know it's possible to do a horror film on Egyptian culture without going for the mummy route, as there's a lot of fun here with the creature's appearance and supernatural powers that has some really fun times here. These here give this plenty to like against the few minor flaws to this one. Although there's a lot of fun to be had from this, it's Adventure-movie feel does leave the pace and tone a little disjointed here which makes this too upbeat here without really offering too many scary moments as it whisks itself off into another big action scene, which causes the pace to be a little thrown at times. That also causes this one to really gloss over the unleashed plagues part of the curse, which really should've been much more prominent here instead of how this one handles that kind of scene. The only other flaw here is the lack of clear-cut explanations for everything that are stated as fact, which is a big annoyance. Overall, though, it's not half bad.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Language.

I'm at this very moment debating whether I should even finish watching this "poppycock" of a movie. They had a pretty interesting idea, with the buried movie set, and that was it. So far this incomprehensible mess has no real story. There is the buried set, some wolf headed monster running amok, an amulet, and a bunch of bad actors attacked by the wolf masked whatever it is. What I would have missed, had I had the good sense to eject this nonsense is a dune buggy chase, some really bad C.G.I., some incredibly stupid dialog, more bad C.G.I., and the hero fighting paper cut outs. Other than the original idea, this film has absolutely zero redeeming qualities. My mistake for continuing to watch. - MERK

Watching the first 30 minutes of Sands of Oblivion gave me high hopes. It seemed I was in for a cheaper version of the Mummy. The setup was promising, in the 1920's Cecil B. Demille makes his opus of the Ten Commandments. It seems in using real Egyptian artifacts for the movie set they unleashed an ancient and terrible evil (don't they always?). Aware of what had been unleashed DeMille orders the entire set buried instead of the usual practice of tearing it down. Hopefully the evil will be buried with it for all time. Then we switch to present day where a team is attempting to excavate the site (the movie's first mistake, but hey those period costumes are expensive and this is a Sci-Fi channel movie). The first sightings we get of the Anubis monster are well done and it's a costume that they put some effort into and not the usual cheesy CG effect. Then the body counts starts. This is were the movie went south for me. The reactions to the fact that people are dying in gruesome and strange ways gets a strangely subdued reaction. Once they realize that the ancient evil has again been unleashed and is on a killing spree what do the stock issue leading man and lady do? They make the usual stop to the "guy who knows the truth but never told anyone". After getting that vital information do they share it with the comrades at the dig site? No, they stop off at a hotel for a refreshing shower and some pleasant small talk. Really I'm not the most motivated person but if I knew a demon from ancient Egypt was on the loose and killing everyone in sight and would be coming after me I'd put a little hustle in my step to solve the problem. After this overlong and pointless middle section they get around to destroying the Anubis monster in the usual way, by racing around in dune buggies and shooting it with a rocket launcher while it's standing by a pile of phosphorous grenades. For a Sci-Fi movie it was above the usual crap they put out, which isn't saying much at all. What disappoints me is this could have been a lot more if someone had wrote a decent script for it.

I found "Sands of Oblivion" to be passable entertainment, which I kept watching for the joy of seeing Jayne and Inara together again. The evil entity was pretty lame....what was its goals? Take over the world, or just kill people because he/it was angry about something? The efforts of the hero and heroine were all aimed at saving themselves, which didn't seem to be worth documenting.I liked the hero, Jayne and Inara did well, the special effects were OK, there was good comic relief with the Buford character, and a really good shock early on in the show. I didn't miss the two hours I spent on this show. For those reasons, I give it a six out of ten.
