CURSE OF THE MUMMY'S TOMB (1964)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >
Hokum abounds in this standard "Those who defile the mob..." etc and it is helped by better than You would expect sets and a couple of genuinely creepy Mummy appearances. Sadly, the story drags and the "Love Triangle" is comprised of three of the blandest cast members in any Hammer film. Fickle Jeanne Roland is strictly ornamental and not in a good way, Ronald Howard (son of actor Leslie from GONE WITH THE WIND) is stodginess personified and lead Terence Morgan , mere moments after meeting the couple does his best to "Cock-Block" the other fellow. Was glad to see Michael Ripper in here, but sadly, his character is gone too soon. *1/2
