Review of The Mummy's Tomb (1942) by Mark D — 25 Oct 2010
"The Fear of the Year." The Mummy's Tomb picks up several years after the cursed expedition of The Mummy's Hand. Goofy archeologists Dick Foran and Wallace Ford are old men now, and after they're targeted by the walking bandage Kharis (played here for the first time by a rather routine Lon Chaney) their offspring must take up the mantle of jingoistic corpse smashers.
Running just one minute over an hour (and the first ten minutes bloated with an unnecessary recap), The Mummy's Tomb doesn't really have much going for it. Few scares, few laughs. It's a meh.
