Revenge of the Mummy reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Revenge of the Mummy, a roller coaster at Universal Studios Singapore. (The minimum height to ride is 48 inches.)
Written by Robert Niles Plunge into darkness on this indoor roller coaster as you face warrior mummies trying to claim your soul for the undead fiend Imhotep from the "Mummy" series of action films. This version of Mummy features a darker ending than the U.S. versions of the same ride.
Readers' rating:
Perhaps the most intense Mummy ride at any of the Universal parks, Universal Studios Singapore's version is similar to the Orlando edition. However, it dispenses with the idea of being on a "Mummy" movie set. Instead, you're supposed to be actually exploring an Egyptian tomb. The ornate and gargantuan theming does the concept justice, and then some, with cavernous walkways and detailed walls in the ride queue. The ride itself is a clever mix of roller coaster and dark ride with solid special effects. - Bryan Wawzenek Loved Revenge of the Mummy - No wait time to ride. Have never riden any version of this ride and it was an incredible experience. - Nathan Alexander DAY: Friday. TIME: 11.45am. STANDARD LINE: 30 minutes. SINGLE RIDER LINE: 2 minutes. RIDE DURATION: 3 minutes. TIP: Bags are not allowed on this ride. There are free lockers on the left of the ride building. Head there first before getting in line. DESCRIPTION: Outstanding ride. I feel the total darkness parts are better than the Florida counterpart, however, I find the Florida version scarier in the reverse section. The outside area surrounding the ride is quite phenomenal! - Daniel Smith It's nearly identical to the Orlando version, but no Universal joke. The themed area makes you feel like you are in Egypt so you are the Archeologist, you are Brendan Fraser. The line is basically scary, you will never see a person go on the single riders line or Universal Express.When you enter, you'll see a bunch of Anubis statues and turn around the corner, alot of people drawn on the walls( their eyes are scary as hell). Most people will also cut lines to get off the scariness. There is only two ride attendants(if you were wondering). You board a mine cart which makes you feel like Indiana Jones. The ride starts with identical version with Orlando's but better. Instead of a Universal Ride Attendant, it's Eve's assistant been captured and half mummified by Imhothep. He turns around and says :You will never find the book, your souns will be mine for all eternity.....' Its identical to the Orlando version, but I will not say further. I'll leave it to your self to experience. (or YouTube, I recommend Bigbearsg ) - Joel Lee More attraction and restaurant ratings: |
