Beni Gabor is the secondary antagonist of the 1999 movie remake The Mummy. He is the cowardly thief-turned-minion of Imhotep.
He was portrayed by Kevin J. O'Connor.
Why Do We Hate Him?[]
- He is a coward that resorts to betraying everyone to save his own skin…and so he can get paid with Egyptian treasure.
- Unlike Imhotep, he is not portrayed as being sympathetic. Though Beni is decidedly the more comedic of the two.
- He helped Imhotep sneak his way into Cairo so that he could hunt down the four treasure hunters that the mummy can drain the life out of to restore his humanity, as Imhotep had been reduced to a skeleton.
- He tells Mr. Burns what is about to happen to him (he’s about to be drained to death by Imhotep) out of sadism.
- He doesn’t regret his actions, even when Rick confronts him on it.
- He has no loyalty to Rick, even though they used to work together.
Trivia[]
- If Beni hadn’t decided to assist Imhotep in killing four cursed men, he may have survived, as he was not cursed by the opening of the chest containing the Book of the Dead.
- In The Mummy Returns, Baltuz Hafez can be considered his successor, though he is more evil than him because he decided to resurrect Imhotep, while Beni did not resurrect Imhotep the first time, rather Evylen.
