The movie you're thinking of might be The Monster Squad. Here's a trailer for it, and at about 35 seconds into it, there's the scene with the mummy in the closet that you described. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VAat7Q--wQ
Hope that's what you're looking for! :)
So this was a million years ago. Early 90's.
It was some cheesy live action horror movie that was on TV, I just don't remember if it was made for TV movie or just a movie to be played.
All I remember was a cheesy, skinny mummy thing walking around a neighborhood. And a scene where this kid is all, "Daddy there's a monster in my closet". And you see the weird mummy thing in the closet,but the dad is facing away, looking at the kid, mocking him with "Ooo, scary monster!"
I never actually *saw* it, because the movie was like, canceled.
Thank you in advance.
