The Mummy's Ghost

An Egyptian high priest journeys to America to reclaim the bodies of ancient Egyptian princess Ananka and her living guardian mummy Kharis. Upon learning that Ananka's spirit has been reincarnated into another body, he abducts a young woman of Egyptian descent who bears a mysterious resemblance to the princess. Yet the high priest's greed drives him to lose control of the mummy.

6/10

This film belongs to a suitably maniacal John Carradine as "Yousef Bey" who has been charged by the gods to empower the mummified body of the High Priest "Kharis" (Lon Chaney Jr. but it might as well have been anyone) to reunify with the Princess Ananka who appears to have reincarnated in the guise of "Amina" (the glamorous but terribly static Ramsey Ames). Who can stop this? Well that task falls to Robert Lowery ("Tom") who has to thwart the increasingly ambitious plotting of Carradine and his embalmed enforcer. I quite enjoyed it, but it has little of merit to recommend it; the action scenes are as lumbering as Chaney doing the cha-cha; the dialogue likewise and but for Carradine's eyes and a few scenes from George Zucco as the modern day High Priest, it would fall entirely by the wayside.
