The Mummy's Curse is the 1944 horror film follow-up to The Mummy's Ghost. This film marks Lon Chaney, Jr.'s final appearance as Kharis, the Egyptian mummy. The Universal Mummy series boasts of a parallel-earth kind of timeline. The Mummy's Hand was made and set in 1940; The Mummy's Tomb takes place 30 years later in 1970; The Mummy's Ghost is also set in 1970, and The Mummy's Curse twenty-five years after "Ghost." That means if the timeline is taken seriously, this film is set in 1995. Although the previous two films in the series take place in Massachusetts, with no explanation being given for the change, The Mummy's Curse moves the action to Louisiana.

And people complain about sequels today. They've been happening for years.
ReplyDeleteLon Cheney was a make-up master and today's artists just follow in his work. They knew how to make sequels back then.
