In 1999, Stephen Sommers wrote and directed a remake of The Mummy, loosely based on the original film of 1932. Barker's take was "dark, sexual and filled with mysticism", and that, "it would have been a great low-budget movie". Barker's vision for the film was violent, with the story revolving around the head of a contemporary art museum who turns out to be a cultist trying to reanimate mummies.
