Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

mark.waltz Thirty years have gone by since the supposed destruction of the mummy in "The Mummy's Hand", and after a lengthy flashback to at least a reel of the first film, we get the news that George Zucco's Andoheb has survived his being shot and falling down a huge flight of cement pyramid steps and has been keeping the slightly burnt mummy in hiding for further revenge. Peggy Moran's character, seen in the flashbacks, has ed away (from natural causes we are supposed to believe), and her widower (Dick Foran) has told the story of what happened all those years ago to his sister (Mary Gordon), son (John Hubbard) and fiancee (Elyse Knox). But at that very moment, Zucco es the mummy torch onto the sexy Turhan Bey who brings along the mummy to nearby where Foran, Gordon and Hubbard now live. Taking a job as a caretaker of a nearby mansion, Bey sets out to complete his task of killing off the remaining desecraters of Kharis's tomb, and that includes Foran's old friend (Wallace Ford), still wise-cracking, who happens to pay a visit to his old pal. Bey makes the mistake of forgetting Zucco's warning of not being distracted by anything by becoming obsessed with making Knox his wife and forcing her, along with himself, to take a potion made of the tana leaves so they can live together forever and be immortal.O.K., so thirty years has gone by, but nothing in society has apparently changed, so if this is supposed to be in the future, you wouldn't know it. Had this simply been a completely different film with different characters, it could have been so much better, because the story is fine. But in continuing the story from the previous film is where the writers make their mistake because that increases the number of plot holes. Foran and Gordon, supposed to be brother and sister, seem nothing alike, and Lon Chaney Jr., taking over for Tom Tyler in the mummy bandages, does nothing but skulk around and attack his victims, no recognition even with his eyes that it is Chaney. The fact that major characters from the first film become victims of the mummy here was an interesting choice, but the conclusion, where villagers storm the mansion where Bey is residing, seems straight out of a "Frankenstein" movie. It's silly fun, once again instantly forgettable, and proof that too much of a good thing can make that good thing not so good afterall.

Hitchcoc I loved the very first Universal Mummy movie with Boris Karloff in all his spookiness. It has a connection to mysteries of Egypt and Books of the Dead. Most of the other films from this genre have a real sameness to them. There is the man who travels with Kharis, the poor creature, buried alive and wrapped in cloth. His agenda seems to be to protect Kharis but he fails sometimes. This one hearkens back to the Mummy's Hand where the characters have now aged and gone on to a new generation. There is lots of death in this one, where people who the mummy realized were responsible for his struggles are done in. Soon the mummy has found a new love, and so he sets out to make things happen. Jealousy plays a role in this offering and sets the scene for another movie.

Panamint Filmed in a non-dynamic, straightforward manner, this is a basic standard style b-movie. Each scene follows the one before it, very predictably. This is OK but the producers are obviously not reaching for anything dynamic or ground-breaking. Its predecessor/originator "The Mummy's Hand" is an exciting, fun Mummy film but as a sequel "The Mummy's Tomb" is strictly a follow-on that begins with flashbacks to scenes from that predecessor.It should be noted that most of the acting in this sequel is quite good with a little gem of a performance by George Zucco, and featuring stalwarts like Turhan Bey and Mary Gordon doing excellent work in ing roles.Hubbard and Knox are on hand to be just what they are: contract b-movie players who do competent work and don't get in the way. But that is really all they are asked to do and they are engaging if some what bland leads- you will find their roles and performances to be attractive and inoffensive but definitely not memorable.Mummy fans will appreciate this film and need it in their collections. It is watchable and is a good enough continuation of the Mummy series, but has the feel of a movie that was made for the purpose of marking time cheaply as the series plays itself out.

AaronCapenBanner Harold Young directed this sequel to "The Mummy's Hand", now starring Lon Chaney Jr. as Kharis the mummy, who is still alive and on his way to America with a young priest(played by Turhan Bey) who are pledged to kill off the survivors of the Banning expedition that brought Princess Ananka home to the Scripps museum. George Zucco also returns as Andoheb, who survived being shot in the earlier film, and sent them on their mission of revenge. Dick Foran and Wallace Ford reprise their roles as Banning and Babe. Strange and misconceived sequel picks up the story thirty years later(!) Why the long wait? No idea, no explanation is given. To see key characters killed by Kharis is surprising, but also bizarre. Largely ineffectual film has little credibility or atmosphere; mostly good for camp value.
