    • Trivia

    • Goofs
      Todd drives off to 'get help.' You see his car racing down the road. Margaret uses her ancient powers to raise a wind that flips the roof of Todd's convertible to vertical. As Todd reaches up to try to lower the roof, you can see grass around the car, and the car is clearly not moving! Next moment the car hits a tree.

    • Alternate versions
      The 1971 cinema version was cut and this seems to have become the definitive version for all videos/DVDs since (Region 1 and 2 releases). The cuts were: A shot of a hospital orderly striking an inmate was removed.

    An under-rated Hammer film from the latter period.
    "Blood From The Mummy's Tomb" is one of Hammers greatest films from the latter period. This film has a better than average screenplay and with some outstanding direction from Seth Holt in his final film. Andrew Keir and James Villiers share the acting honours but Valerie Leon does well in her dual characters.

    This movie deserved better advertising when it went out on general release. It was released on the lower half of another Hammer horror film.

    Given the slightly troubled production, it is a wonder "Blood From The Mummy's Tomb" was made at all.

    Peter Cushing leaving the production after only a days filming and Seth Holt suddenly dying about 10 days before the end of shooting,led everyone involved to believe their movie was cursed.

    Michael Carraras finished the film himself after assuming directorial duties.

    The end result is brilliant - a low key approach with only the necessary cast required, some fine photography and music all contribute to the film's success.

    The Mummy films were never Hammers best but this one is able to infuse the familiar Mummy story with something a bit more original.
