Directed by Terence Fisher
Of all the landmark Hammer horror films I've seen, this one has to be my least favorite. And even still, it isn't a bad movie. With Peter Cushing delivering one of his many strong performances and poor Christopher Lee playing a monster (as usual), this movie is all style and little substance. Not even remotely creepy or tense, this film focuses more on storytelling. And while the story it tells is enough to keep your attention, it isn't enough to keep you interested in what might happen next. Not bad, but not good. Worth a watch only if you're in the mood for a small dose of ancient Egypt.
