Curse of Tutankhamun

Documentary that recounts the events surrounding the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun and the fate of the men that opened it. Seventy-five years after a British team of archeologists discovered and opened the tomb, legends about the curse of King Tut continue to circulate. The stories of the curse were fueled by the accidental deaths of several of the individuals responsible for the expedition and the excavation of the tomb. Legend has it, that when the tomb was sealed over 2000 years ago, Egyptian priests placed a protective spell on the tomb, cursing anyone who disturbed the sanctuary.
