A botched Luxor dig cracks a prison of living sand, reviving a warlord who feeds on breath and memory. Dwayne Johnson is a scar‑marked guardian of a secret order, dragged back into a curse he once outran.

Megan Fox plays a razor‑smart cryptologist‑thief who can read the dead—and owes them interest. Scarab swarms, mirror mazes, and a sun‑key that burns lies from stone turn the desert into a shifting trap.

From Cairo rooftops to the Valley’s night‑black catacombs, the pair must bind a soul before the red moon completes the resurrection rite. Trust is fragile, sand is endless, and the final door wants blood more than a password. When the dunes rise like a tidal wave, only courage—and a curse—stand their ground.

Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5) — Pulpy, thunderous, deliciously cursed.
