The Mummy (1932)

The Mummy is a 1932 pre-code American supernatural horror film directed by Karl Freund and stars Boris Karloff. In the film, Karloff stars as an ancient Egyptian mummy named Imhotep, who is discovered by a team of archaeologists and inadvertently brought back to life by a magic scroll being read aloud. Disguised as a modern Egyptian named Ardeth Bey, Imhotep searches for his lost love, who he believes has been reincarnated as a modern girl. In recent times, the film has drawn criticisms for orientalism and the “othering” of Egyptian culture.
