The Mummy's Hand. 1940.
A muummy is awakened to destroy the invaders of a Egyptian princess.
This is the start of the Universal remake and quadrilogy of movies made in the 40s. This had its moments of horror and comedy moments from Dick Foran and Wallace Ford as the archeologyist who seek the Tomb. Eduardo Ciannelli plays the High Priest but also has a sinister look about him and Peggy Moran plays the heroine in this. The film does have its slow and stop moments and may seem to drag on but certainly still worth watching but don't expect special effects just great costumes and gothic light to make it more horror.
