I remember in the late 80s every friday night about 2.00am they used to do a feature on the TV called "Dead Of Night" when they would show a horror film, usually Hammer films. I used to video them and watch them next morning. One friday they showed this. I recorded it and watched it next morning and I remember the opening theme just got me instantly and I've never forgotten it. Its easily the best theme for any Hammer film. Definately one of the top 3 films Hammer ever did.

Franz Reizenstein's score is easily the finest music that was ever composed for a Hammer Film. It's a great pity that he did not write more music for films. He obviously had a terrific flair for filmusic. However, he did had a distinguished career as a teacher, concert pianist, as well as composer of works for the concert hall. I'm sure we'd all like to hear more of his music on Youtube!

Sure Christopher, I agree that the Mummy is one of the best films that Hammer did, and my brother and I, admire you as the best "monster" of every film. You are a great actor!

It could have been nicer to make the Mummy's mouth covered. Could have made him scarier.

Christopher Lee's voice is so powerful like he's a king or lord that's why he was greatest Dracula/Mummy ever that regal air about him came from within......The Darthside lol!

This music is among the greatest music ever composed for any film, period. It would have been great to see Hammer do a Mummy series like their Dracula and Frankenstein. Too bad.

What a brilliant Reizenstein score! Would you believe I found letters of Reizenstein to a German Radio channel among items they threw away? =_=
