THE PLOT:

Peter and Freddie get in way over their heads with murder, a missiing medallion and walking undead mummy and they have to clear their names and stop the Klaris the mummy and the insane cult that brought the mummy to life.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

Another classic Bud and Lou romp full of scares, slapstick and laughs. But I got to warn you like a lot of movies of this time period it can drag on at times. But I did enjoy the fact the mummy had no visible eyes. That was kind of cool effect for 1955, so I give it 9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree with Zedd, this is another great Abbott and Costello movie and everything he said I was going to say, so I guess I don't have much to add to this review except I too give it 9 STARS.

+ FUNNY (It's very funny.)
+ SCARES (Plenty of frights.)
+ CHARACTERS (The characters work.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- DRAGS (Like a lot of movies at this time period, it can drag on at times.)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you aren't big on Abbott and Costello or Mummy movies, this isn't for you.)
