Boris Karloff's portrayal of the resurrected Imhotep in Universal's 1932 production of The Mummy solidified the actor's reputation as the King of Horror. Karloff of course had already terrified early movie audiences with his portrayal of the Frankenstein Monster, but in terms of a menacing yet tragic performance and Jack Pierce's striking makeup The Mummy may be considered Karloff's crowning achievement. Directed with cinematic style by ace cameraman Karl Freund, The Mummy remains one of the most memorable chillers of Hollywood's Golden Years.

Riley provides the reader with unique and detailed insight into the production of this classic movie along with the complete screenplay, cast biographies, rare photographs and other untombed treasures, sure to please fans, budding screenwriters and serious students of cinema.
