The movie included a subtitled segment about alleged similarities between the stories of Horus and Jesus which involved amusing scenes from old movies about Jesus while the song Walk Like an Egyptian played. When asked about this part of the movie, the Straight Dope column stated “The notion that Jesus was copied from Horus is a stretch”.
Was Jesus copied from the Egyptian god Horus?
The column says the alleged parallels repeated what self-taught Egyptologist Gerald Massey claimed “whose work has never been taken seriously by scholars".

Dose Jesus seem like a Horus copy?
Richard Carrier and Robert Price are mythicists who find the Horus-Jesus connection illicit. Earl Doherty is perhaps the most prominent mythicist and agrees:
“It may not be an exaggeration, for example, to say that the majority of alleged parallels between Horus and Jesus are either unfounded or overstated.”
Carrier and Price have PhDs and believe Jesus never existed. They are more qualified than the comedian Bill and they've written many books. Carrier is also an atheist.
So the Horus segment isn't 100% accurate. Surely the accuracy of a documentary is relevant
