Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The early shot of Yousef Bey, played by John Carradine, ascending the stairs to the temple where he will present himself to the aging High Priest Andoheb (George Zucco), is actually footage of Zucco as a much younger Andoheb doing the exact same thing in The Mummy's Hand (1940). more
Goofs:
Continuity: The Mummy has a limp right arm folded helplessly across his chest. When he encounters the fainted Amina, he lifts her up in both arms with no problem, and as soon as he puts her down his right arm returns to its crippled position once again. more

The Mummy's Ghost (1944) **, 5 August 2005
4/10
Author: MARIO GAUCI (marrod@onvol.net) from Naxxar, Malta

Perhaps the weakest film in the "Kharis" series, despite the presence of John Carradine (miscast as an Egyptian high priest) and George Zucco (as his predecessor, hilariously afflicted by a bad case of Parkinson's Disease) supporting Lon Chaney Jr. as the titular creature - if indeed it was him under the bandages, as his contribution is negligible at best! It's a watchable 60 minutes in itself, I guess, but the standards have considerably lowered when compared even to the two previous entries, and the end result is strictly routine and not at all memorable. Just about the only interesting feature here is the fact that the female lead happens to be the reincarnation of Princess Ananka, mentioned a great deal in earlier films but never actually seen.
