The Mummy, starring legends of the horror genre, Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee

What do you when you’re on an overnight stay in a hotel in Cardiff?

Watch The Mummy, a colour movie from 1959 starring giants of the horror genre, Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, that’s what.

Horror then was very different to what it is now. Very different.

Set in the late nineteenth century, an archeological dig in Egypt brings a mummy back to life.

The mummy is played by Christopher Lee, where the plot then moves to England and after murdering two of the archaeologists, there’s only Peter Cushing left.
