Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971)
Director: Seth Holt, Michael Carreras
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
An adaptation of Bram Stoker's Jewel of the Seven Stars, scripted by former TO contributor Chis Wicking, and directed by cult horror-merchant Holt (who sadly died during production, leaving Carreras to finish it off). A stylish addition to the mummy genre, with members of an expedition which brought a mummy back to Britain suddenly kicking the bucket years later, and the expedition leader's daughter being possessed by the ancient princess. One of the better late efforts from Hammer.Author: GA
