THE MUMMY'S HAND (1940). One of my favorites from Universal, just a FUN movie all around. The four leads (Peggy Moran, Dick Foran, Cecil Kellaway and Wallace Ford) are so likable, even if Wallace gets very close to wearing out his welcome. But, He does really save the day, so all can be forgiven.
George Zucco is spot on as the High Priest, even though he probably started the trend of the importance of the mission being bollocksed by Lust; but guess You can't blame him, Peggy is awfully adorable here.
Tom Tyler makes a great Mummy and the scene in the cave with Zucco and Charles Trowbridge is genuinely frightening. ***1/2
