“Mummy Strikes, The (1942) u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e** (out of 4) u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA woman is convicted of murdering a scientist in Egypt but Clark is called over to go over some clues, which might point the finger at a mummy. Lois tags along and gets herself kidnapped, which means Superman must do some fighting. There arenu0026#39;t actually any mummies in this thing but thatu0026#39;s not what makes it so boring. What kills this film is that it runs under eight-minutes and the action doesnu0026#39;t start until close to the six and a half minute mark. We get a lot of dialogue telling us what the doctor was doing in Egypt yet we get very little action and Superman doesnu0026#39;t even appear until the very end and itu0026#39;s only for a matter of seconds. The animation looks very good but the budget was apparently too tight for a good script.”
