Bubba Ho-Tep (2002)
A mummy stalks a retiremnet home that just happens to house the legendary Elvis Presily! I really got into this quaint, but dark comedy/horror flick. i didn't really come off as cheesy as one might think, but it was still prety funny to see an elderly Elvis fight a mummy. The setting was great and teh acting was also above par. Yeah I'm a Bruce Campbell fan, but it was still good! Little real gore, but this movie didn't really call for it. 4.5 out of 5.
