The Awakening (1980)

In the sun-baked sands of Egypt, an American archaeologist named Matthew Corbeck is consumed by an insatiable obsession - the discovery of the crypt of the long-lost Queen Kara. His pregnant wife Anne, along with his astute assistant Jane Turner, stand by his side in this quest that blurs the line between passion and madness. As Corbeck cracks the accursed seal of the queen's tomb, a simultaneous miracle and curse unfolds - his wife gives birth to their daughter, Margaret. Years weave a complex tapestry of mystery and fear as Corbeck grapples with a haunting realization. The malevolent spirit of Queen Kara, released in the same breath as the discovery of her resting place, has found a new vessel in his innocent daughter. Margaret, now a young woman of eighteen, exhibits eerie behaviors that mirror the ancient queen's lore, her life teetering on the edge of a supernatural precipice. In a desperate race against time, Corbeck must confront the chilling truth - he must perform an ancient ritual to free his daughter from Kara's grasp. But the stakes are higher than personal; if he fails, Margaret's burgeoning powers could unleash a threat to mankind's very existence. Will Corbeck manage to sever the spectral tether binding his daughter to the long-dead queen? Or will the world crumble under the weight of an ancient curse reborn? The Awakening beckons you to unravel this gripping tale of obsession, possession, and a father's love pitted against an age-old terror.
