I'm Daniel Berrios. This is my journey to learn about the movies - the art form I adore - one review, interview, editorial at a time. Take care of yourselves. Take care of each other. All of us keep the movies alive.

S4E54. 31 Days of Halloween - Day 3: THE MUMMY (1932) dir. Karl Freund

🎶 On the 3rd Day of Halloween, my true love gave to me a stone knife to the stomach and promises of eternal life as a mu-mmy 🎶

1932's THE MUMMY sees Boris Karloff (now marketed as KARLOFF THE UNCANNY after FRANKENSTEIN's success) as an ancient Egyptian sorcerer, revived after 3,000 years with a mission to revive his love, Princess Anck-es-en-amon.

How? No big deal. He's just going to find the last woman (Zita Johann) in the princess' bloodline, kill her, plug in the princess' soul and play beloved immortal couple forever. For some reason, these archaeologists (David Manners, Arthur Byron & patron saint of the podcast Edward Van Sloan) are acting like that's a bad thing.

See, ladies? if he really wanted to, he would.
