Classic Movie Night: The Wolf Man and The Mummy
Join emcee and local film enthusiast John Alexander for a Classic Movie Night Double Feature at The Virginia to celebrate Halloween, featuring The Wolf Man (1941) and The Mummy (1932).
The Wolf Man
When his brother dies, Larry Talbot (Lon Chaney) returns to Wales and reconciles with his father (Claude Rains). While there, he visits an antique shop and, hoping to impress Gwen (Evelyn Ankers), the attractive shopkeeper, buys a silver walking cane. That same night he kills a wolf with it, only to later learn that he actually killed a man (Bela Lugosi). A gypsy (Maria Ouspenskaya) explains that it was her son, a werewolf, that he killed, and that Larry is now one himself.
The Mummy
Released by Universal Studios as a part of the Universal Classic Monsters franchise, The Mummy stars Boris Karloff, Zita Johann, David Manners, Edward Van Sloan and Arthur Byron. In the film, Karloff stars as Imhotep, an ancient Egyptian mummy who was killed for attempting to resurrect his dead lover, Anck-es-en-Amon. After being discovered and accidentally brought to life by a team of archaeologists, he disguises himself as a modern Egyptian named Ardeth Bey and searches for Anck-es-en-Amon, whom he believes has been reincarnated in the modern world.
