MUMMY AND THE CURSE OF THE JACKALS, THE (1969)
MUMMY AND THE CURSE OF THE JACKALS, THE (1969)
“A GENUINE KITSCH MASTERPIECE…
It shows an infectious enthusiasm – even ingenuity – as it tries desperately to mash the mummy and werewolf subgenres together.”
Killer Horror Critic
THE WORLDWIDE DISC PREMIERE
PLUS BONUS SEXPLOITATION FEATURE
Experience the notorious 1969 horror epic that’s been barely seen since its fly-by-night VHS release while existing mostly via sordid rumors for more than 50 years: Anthony Eisley (THE NAKED KISS, DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN) stars in this brain-melting mash-up of dubious Egyptology, risible werewolf transformations, H.G. Lewis-level gore, cut-rate psychedelia and an oven-mitted mummy on a Las Vegas rampage, all set to a swinging soundtrack of lounge and surf instrumentals. The legendary John Carradine (THE GRAPES OF WRATH, HORROR OF THE BLOOD MONSTERS) earns a day’s pay in this “truly incredible masterpiece of bad cinema” (Harbinger) written and produced by William Edwards (DRACULA THE DIRTY OLD MAN), directed by Oliver Drake (THE MUMMY’S CURSE) and scanned in 4K from the blow up internegative discovered at Ewing ‘Lucky’ Brown’s Los Angeles estate sale, now with over 2 hours of Special Features that include the thought-lost Vega International adult feature ANGELICA, THE YOUNG VIXEN scanned from the sole surviving print.
