Customer Reviews

There is more to the story than Chan.

Charlie Chan (Warner Oland), based on a real detective from Honolulu, is serving as a representative for a French museum. He is investigating Egyptian archaeological items that were sold on the black market. Charlie discovers that the archaeologist he came to see is out on a dig and has not been seen for some time. Meanwhile, he views the mummy of an Egyptian pharaoh using a fluoroscope and finds that the pharaoh was killed with a modern bullet. The usual suspects are all hanging around the house. The camera captures everyone looking sneaky. We listen to eerie violin music and see mysterious things in the dark. To distract us and provide comic relief, we have Snowshoes (Stepin Fetchit) searching for his ancient relatives in Memphis. After all, things are solved, we still feel there is a mystery of Egyptian magic.
