Synopsis
The Mummy's Curse (1944) is Universal's classic horror film you can watch online on iFILM. Lon Chaney Jr. plays the mummy Kharis one last time — no pyramids, no desert, just the fog-soaked bayous of Louisiana.
Kharis has been trapped in quicksand for over two decades. When a drainage crew disturbs the site, he rises again. So does Princess Ananka — her soul now inhabiting a young woman named Amina (Virginia Christine). An archaeologist named Holsey arrives to recover the remains for a museum. His assistant has a different use in mind.
The fifth and final entry in Universal's original Mummy series, the film runs sixty minutes and leans entirely on atmosphere. Moving the action from Egypt to the American South was the one genuinely odd choice this franchise ever made — and it works. Stream The Mummy's Curse online on iFILM.
