Episode #2 of the Murdoch Mysteries: The Curse of the Lost Pharaohs was short and sweet, running only two and a half minutes. After a short recap, we learn another murder has taken place. Our heroes find a hieroglyphic journal, which with some painstaking effort, is translated into english. We also meet “The Stout-Hearted Enforcer” Inspector Thomas Brakenreid. They learn that an angry deity “is coming” and find themselves face to face with something from beyond the grave.
The Verdict
The visuals of this episode were just as good as the first, and the pulp feel continues to entertain. Because of the short length, the second episode seemed a bit rushed and a little disjointed from the first. Still, I’m looking forward to some more character interaction and some twists in the murder plot.
Our Episode #3 recap will be up later this week. In the mean time, tell us what you think in the comments.
