Blood from the Mummy's Tomb

Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971) is a Hammer horror film you can watch online on iFILM, loosely drawn from Bram Stoker's novel The Jewel of Seven Stars.

An archaeologist brings home the mummy of Tara, an Egyptian queen of darkness who once severed her own hand. For his daughter Margaret's birthday he hands her an ancient ruby ring, and a long-dead will starts moving through the young woman. People around her die one by one, while that severed hand seems to act on its own. Valerie Leon plays both women.

Director Seth Holt died days before filming wrapped, and Hammer boss Michael Carreras finished the job — you can spot the seam. What survives is a clammy, mean little chiller with no shuffling bandaged mummy anywhere in sight. Stream Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971) online on iFILM.
