Book Reviews of The Mummy Unwrapped: Scenes Left on Universal's Cutting Room Floor

Book Review: A Must Have For Horror Enthusiasts and Classic Film Buffs
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is devoted entirely to Universal's "Mummy" movies of the 1940s. It reveals lost action and dialogue by analyzing scenes that were edited out days before "The Mummy's Hand" was released to theaters, treats readers to other dialogue that was filmed and then cut down to almost nothing before being included in the films, and compares and contrasts the original story of "The Mummy's Return" to the final shooting script of what was later renamed "The Mummy's Curse". Each of the films has its own chapter, and chapters are also devoted to the actors who played the heroes, heroines, high priests, victims, and mummies in the films, and to the filmmakers who brought the mummies to life.

The book's foreward is written by Peggy Moran-Koster, the feisty heroine and only living actor from "The Mummy's Hand".

Universal horror enthusiast Thomas M. Feramisco is a prize winning script writer and copywriter. He lives in Thousand Oaks, California.
