Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971)

Hammer’s final mummy film from 1971. Screenplay by Christopher Wicking. Because it is a movie instead of a book, the story is chopped up into pieces out of order and told with plenty of flashbacks. However, being a Hammer classic, the movie is good in its own right. And where did they find Valerie Leon (Margaret Fuchs / Queen Tera)? She makes you want to do anything the queen requests. An evil queen of Egypt is dispatched (or assumed so) in antiquity. They sever her hand so she cannot gesticulate. because the movie is based on Bram Stoker’s “The Jewel of the Seven Stars,” we see seven stars throughout the scenes. Turns out that Queen Tera is just napping and biding her time until today (1971). She lures an archaeological team to her tomb; there, she charges them with helping with resurrection. Meanwhile, back in England, Margaret Fuchs (Olive Gregg) mysteriously falls off the twig. So now that the plot is played out, you will want to see how the story is executed. If you did not know that Bram Stoker wrote this, you could almost guess it was Sax Rohmer.
