Revenge of the Mummy, commonly known as the Mummy Ride, is an enclosed steel roller coaster based upon the popular Mummy movie franchise directed by Stephen Sommers. The rides are located at Universal Studios Florida, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Universal Studios Singapore and use linear induction motors (LIMs) to launch riders from a complete standstill to a top speed of between 40 and 45 miles per hour (64 and 72 km/h) in a matter of seconds. All three Revenge of the Mummy roller coasters have a minimum passenger height requirement of 48 inches (120 cm). Although each version of this roller coaster has a unique plot and track layout, all of the Mummy rides were manufactured by Premier Rides and designed by Universal Creative and ITEC Entertainment Corporation. Some of the alternate features of the Singapore version were designed by Adirondack Studios.

Whereat the living mock,

For maybe all that hear
Should laugh and weep an hour upon the clock.”
