Grand total 119 (not counting mummies or general already-dead-creatures)

*“Imhotep” is counted twice as he dies before he becomes “The Mummy” and after “The Mummy” is made mortal again by “Jonathan Carnahan” reading from “The Book of Amon-Ra” this counts as two deaths, however, the mummies of “Imhotep’s” priests do not count twice as they are already dead.

Note: The Film Body Counts only count the characters that are killed on screen, not those that are shown as bodies i.e. the aftermath of a battle when the ground is covered in bodies these are not counted, I have only counted those that we see getting killed during the battle.
