Mummy's Boys (1936)

Two ditch-digging fools sign on to help excavate a cursed Egyptian tomb.

Dir: Fred Guiol Cast:  Bert Wheeler , Robert Woolsey , Barbara Pepper .
68 min, TV-G
CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: Fred Guiol. Bert Wheeler, Robert Woolsey, Barbara Pepper, Moroni Olsen, Frank M. Thomas, Willie Best. Slackly developed comedy about two moronic ditch diggers, recruited for an archeology expedition, getting mixed up with jewel thieves and an ancient Egyptian "curse.'' One of the duo's lesser vehicles, filled with lame puns and moldy mummy gags.

CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: Gunther von Fritsch, Robert Wise. Simone Simon, Kent Smith, Jane Randolph, Elizabeth Russell, Ann Carter, Julia Dean. Follow-up to CAT PEOPLE creates wonderful atmosphere in story of lonely little girl who conjures up vision of Simon, her father's mysterious first wife. Despite title, not a horror film but a fine, moody fantasy. Produced by Val Lewton, written by DeWitt Bodeen. Wise's directing debut. Also available in computer- colored version.

D: Rene Clair. Fredric March, Veronica Lake, Robert Benchley, Susan Hayward, Cecil Kellaway, Elizabeth Patterson. Witch burned in Salem centuries ago (Lake) comes back to haunt descendants of Puritan (March) who sent her to her death. Saucy comedy- fantasy based on a story by Thorne (Topper) Smith. Good special effects, too.

An anthropologist investigates a devil worshipper who commands a deadly demon.

82 min, TV-PG , CC
CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: Jacques Tourneur. Dana Andrews, Peggy Cummins, Niall MacGinnis, Athene Seyler, Liam Redmond, Reginald Beckwith, Maurice Denham. Andrews is a stuffily cynical psychologist who doesn't believe that series of deaths have been caused by ancient curse, but film convinces audience right off the bat and never lets up. Charles Bennett and producer Hal E. Chester adapted Montague R. James' story ''Casting the Runes.'' Exceptional shocker, originally called NIGHT OF THE DEMON. 83m. American version circulated for many years.

CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: Frank Capra. James Stewart, Jean Arthur, Claude Rains, Edward Arnold, Guy Kibbee, Thomas Mitchell, Eugene Pallette, Beulah Bondi, Harry Carey, H. B. Warner, Charles Lane, Porter Hall, Jack Carson. Stewart is young idealist who finds nothing but corruption in U.S. Senate. Fine Capra Americana, with Stewart's top performance bolstered by Arthur as hard-boiled dame won over by earnest Mr. Smith, and a stellar supporting cast; Carey is magnificent as the Vice President. Brilliant script by Sidney Buchman; however, Lewis R. Foster's Original Story received the Oscar. Later a brief TV series. Remade as BILLY JACK GOES TO WASHINGTON.

CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: Frank Capra. Gary Cooper, Barbara Stanwyck, Edward Arnold, Walter Brennan, Spring Byington, James Gleason, Gene Lockhart. Overlong but interesting social commentary, with naive Cooper hired to spearhead national goodwill drive benefitting corrupt politician Arnold. Wordy idealism can't bury good characterizations; usual Capra touches exulting populism. Virtually all existing prints (from reissue) run 123m. Also shown in computer-colored version.
