　　《菲洛梅娜》改编自 BBC记者马汀·斯克斯史密斯的纪实文学《菲洛梅娜遗失的孩子》，取材自真人真事。电影围绕一位母亲半个世纪后的跨海寻子，用喜剧的外观包装悲剧故事，让人在笑泪交织中收获感动，并且给予同性恋、艾滋以及恐同话题以恰如其分的重量。《菲洛梅娜》获得威尼斯电影节最佳剧本奖和LGBT最高荣誉断背狮奖，此外还得到了包括最佳影片在内的4项奥斯卡提名。

　　在别人眼中，Foster医生有着令人羡慕的一切，工作受人尊敬，家庭幸福和睦，夫妻恩爱甜蜜，孩子乖巧听话。其实她自己也一直这样认为，直到有一天，一支唇膏，一根金发的出现，让她开始怀疑眼前的一切。为了查清楚丈夫是否真的出轨，她甚至利用病人帮她跟踪丈夫，结果却发现事情的真相，完全在她的预料之外。

　　The moon rises at a predestined angle and awakens the sleeping Dr. Phibes in 1928, three years after the events of the previous movie. To his dismay, he finds that his house has been demolished and his papyrus scrolls stolen, the scrolls he needs to find the Pharaoh's Tomb in Egypt, where the River of Life flows. After identifying the source of the papyrus theft, he packs and leaves for Egypt with his assistant Vulnavia - whose face displays no effects from the acid shower she received at the end of the previous film (although the character is now played by a different actress, Valli Kemp). His primary goal is the awakening of his dead wife, Victoria.
　　The thieves of Phibes' scrolls suffer an attrition problem as Inspectors Trout and Waverly chase Phibes across the world. The party is led by Beiderbeck (Robert Quarry, best known for playing Count Yorga). Although he looks young, he is several hundred years old and wants to find the River of Life in order to stay alive and be with his lover Diana (Fiona Lewis) forever. This time Phibes' murders all have an Egyptian theme to them; for example, one character is sand-blasted to death. Other deaths include someone being stung to death by scorpions, being eaten by an eagle (in the original script impaled by a gold eagle in the same way a doctor in The Abominable Dr. Phibes was impaled by a golden unicorn), and a golden snake piercing someone's skull.
　　At the climax, Beiderbeck sacrifices his life in order to save Diana. The film ends with Phibes riding a raft down the River of Life with Victoria, while singing "Over the Rainbow" (which is strange, as this film is set in 1928 but "Over The Rainbow" wasn't written until 1938). It is left ambiguous whether Victoria is resurrected or not, although a picture inside the DVD shows her in the raft with her eyes open and smiling at the camera
