Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971)
Country: GB
Technical: col 94m
Director: Seth Holt, Michael Carreras
Cast: Andrew Keir, Valerie Leon, James Villiers
Synopsis:
An Egyptologist brings back a sarcophagus belonging to a magician queen, and her spirit reanimates inside the body of his young daughter.
Review:
Unlike in the classic Mummy film, where the act of desecration alone brings a curse upon the archaeologist and his retinue, here Keir's tomb raider, like Heston's in The Awakening, unleashes evil on the world through his own blood line. It's an atmospheric chiller with a sexiness borrowed from Hammer.
