This is kind of like a cheap-o version of From Dusk Til Dawn, you get the criminals and their hostage who end up in a bar in the desert full of sexy women. The women and a bunch of other patrons turn out to be vampires, so they end up fighting for their lives to escape.
What makes Seven mummies unique (and also quite confusing) is that the bar is actually the saloon in some kind of magical ghost town full of people dressed like cowboys. As our anti-heroes escape from the bar, the sheriff and his deputies come after them while non of the vampires do. Strangely enough, the sheriff and his men opt for using fire-arms rather than sucking their blood so I guess they are not vampires. Well what about the mummies of the title then? They do show up, more than an hour into the film, and it turns out they are martial art, Christian monk mummies. The criminals manage to run away from the karate monk undead, only to bump into the sheriff - who seems to also be the priest considering his monologues - and have to escape from him. It's just a big mess.
Other than that, the pacing isn't the best and there is a general amateurish feel to the whole thing. I think, with a more clear story line, less vampires and ninja mummies, it could have been OK, but the confusion breaks your concentration and you end up being rather bored.
