Welcome to Monsters by the Minute!
For this, the first season of the show, we are taking a look at Universal Pictures 1932 classic, The Mummy, directed by Karl Freund and starring Boris Karloff, Zita Johann and David Manners.
This episode we begin to learn of the story of the Book of Thoth, an ancient Egyptian myth that fuels the film.
Then we learn about Howard Carter, a ground breaking Egyptologist who discovered the tomb of King Tut and started the craze that informed the film, and finally, we take a look at minutes one through nine of the film itself, which begins with an archaeological discovery that endangers the lives of the men who found it.
