Danny Freemont (Casper Van Dien) is
an archeologist whose theories about the pyramids, Atlantis, and the Egyptian
Book of the Dead have made him something of an outcast in the scientific
community. Perhaps no one is more critical of Freemont's unconventional approach
to archeology than Dr. Azelia Barakat (Leonor Varela), a serious-minded
Egyptologist who scoffs at her free-spirited colleague's ideas about King
Tutankhamen's mythical tomb. When Freemont determines that the Emerald Tablet
rumored to be buried with the Egyptian king will provide its owner with the
power to rule the world, Dr. Barakat's curiosity soon trumps her skepticism and
the pair quickly set up a team of experts to locate the tomb and find the
tablet. Despite Freemont and Dr. Barakat's noble intentions, their efforts to
locate and protect the Emerald Tablet threaten to backfire as nefarious
archeologist Morgan Sinclair (Jonathan Hyde) tracks their every move in hopes of
beating them to the prize and using the treasure to unleash the ultimate evil.
Now, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance, the race to uncover one
of history's greatest mysteries is on, and it's going to be a wild ride.
