The Mummy Returns (VFX research 3)

 In the opening Prolog of The mummy Returns we follow the Scorpion King as he leads his arm to war, the kind and his army fail and are driven into the desert, where one by one they all die till the Scorpion Kind is left.


so the king makes a deal with the God Anubis, asking to take control of Anubis's undead army to take revenge, for this act the king would give up his soul. Anubis agrees and saves him, by sending "message" (a scorpion, how ironic)

The king gets stung by a scorpion, as the king eats the scorpion grass starts to spawn and grow around the kind,

 As the camera moves back, we see the forming Oases growing outwards in all directions, grass, vines, trees, shrubs and other forms of vegetation

This all takes place in less then 30 seconds, at the end a lush oases has been made,,


This is more relevant to my idea, and it has given me some insight on the formation and growth patens, something i will use in my VFX video
