Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026): Ending Explained

Forget bandaged pharaohs and Brendan Fraser adventure. Cronin's The Mummy is an R-rated possession horror about the Cannon family, whose daughter Katie was kidnapped in Egypt eight years earlier and is found alive inside a sarcophagus. Katie returns home to New Mexico, but what came back is a vessel for an ancient demon known as the "Destroyer of Families." The ending is a role reversal: her father Charlie takes the demon into himself to save her, and the film closes with the family turning the curse back on the woman who started it all.
