Pharaoh's Curse (1957)

Set in 1902 Egypt, a small group of British soldiers led by Captain Storm (Mark Dana) set out to retrieve a group of archeologists who are seeking a lost tomb. On their journey, they run into a mysterious girl (Ziva Rodann) who insists on accompanying them. Directed by Lee Sholem (TARZAN'S MAGIC FOUNTAIN). Movies about archeologists invading Egyptian tombs and mummy's getting revenge are pretty formulaic. Films like this need imagination and style to work and this programmer fails on that count. The characters behave stupidly. For example, if there's a killer mummy on the loose and you're all alone in a tomb and a mysterious door partially opens, do you get out of there quick or at least go get help or do you walk through the door all alone? Yep, they walk thru the door! The mummy makeup is excellent though. With Diane Brewster, George Neise and Terence De Marney.
