bubba ho-tep

i had high hopes for this one. bruce campbell is the very definition of a cult icon, so i was interested to check out this rather strange film. in it campbell plays elvis pressley (or maybe just and old guy who thinks he's elvis) and is an old folks home. his best friend is a black guy who claims to be john f kennedy. well, the two of them find out that the place they are at seems to be recently haunted by the ghost of a long dead egyptian mummy. as we see these two old guys try to deal with their failing health, they also attempt to combat the zombie remains of the haunted mummy. i was hoping for something fun and interesting, but it was really flat and boring. i guess i just dont get it because it was pretty lame to me. pass.
