Girls, Join Us Tonight At 8PM As "Svengoolie" Presents "The Mummy's Hand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

                            Released in 1940, this was Universal's first mummy movie since the 1932 Karloff classic.  It was not as good, but it is entertaining enough and brought to the forefront the characters of Kharis and Princess Ananka!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                             For such a film, it has a surprisingly fabulous cast!  Wallace Ford, George Zucco, and Cecil Kellaway!!!!!!!!!!!!  Imagine!!!!!!!!!!!!!   When I heard this was to be aired, I mistakenly thought Lon Chaney, Jr. would be playing Kharis, because he appeared in at least one of the subsequent "Mummy" films.  But this time out, the role is being played by noted Western actor Tom Tyler.  Maybe because more physicality is required here? We will have to find out, girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                              Svengoolie himself is hosting this week, but I hope The Squad is around, too, especially Nostalgiafferatoo.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                 Baby Gojira and Company will be joining us aa well.  So don't miss this showing of a Universal classic, if not a gem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                   See you at eight, dolls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
