It has been two years since this podcast launched. As such, it feels like the right time to return to the first film I ever reviewed: The Mummy (1932). Do I still agree with my past self, or have the many mummy movies I have reviewed since then changed my impressions?
In addition, this episode also explores the real-life Imhotep, the villain in the film. Was he truly as evil as the film claims, or was he arguably one of the greatest Egyptians to ever live?
Listen on to find out!
