Find out with all of us, this Saturday night, as Svengoolie presents Hammer's 1959 version of "The Mummy."
It should be fun, but it will not be as brilliant as Universal's 1932 version of the film, starring Boris Karloff as Imhotep, and Zita Johann, as Helen Grosvenor, a kind of forerunner to Princess Ananka. The opening scene, where Imhotep is tortured, tongue cut out, mummified, and, I think, entombed alive, remains one of my most vivid horror film memories.
Even with Christopher Lee, as Kharis, and Yvonne Furneaux, as the Princess Ananka figure, I am not sure this will pass muster, but with color and blood added, I am sure Kerwyn and Company will be on hand, to liven things up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, join us this Saturday eve, for some Egyptian fun!
And don't use up the masking tape.
Just in case, dears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
