The Mummy (1959) Mexican Lobby Card

A lively Peter Cushing, a love-cursed Christopher Lee, and Terrence Fisher’s direction, make Hammer’s The Mummy a colorful horror movie. Cushing related his concern regarding how the highly imaginative poster art, where the mummy has that gaping hole in its chest with the light streaming through, wasn’t actually in the movie. He made sure to add a bit of business to at least imply the nasty wound (shown in the inset scene in the first lobby card).
