The Mummy (1932)

Ten years after he was brought back from the dead, Boris Karloff manipulates a pair of archeologists into uncovering his long-dead lover. As far as the classics go, it’s a fairly standard 1930s monster movie. The fully made-up mummy is only on screen for a few moments. Karloff not in makeup is on for only a little more than that. Like many movies from the era, they unfortunately take a backseat to the reincarnated female and her modern love interest.
