1932 Film Classic ‘The Mummy’ at the Kiwanis Theatre
As part of the Chatham-Kent Museum’s festival MummyFest, the Kiwanis Theatre will be showing the 1932 film classic, The Mummy, starring Boris Karloff. Also showing will be The Mummy’s Hand (1940), The Mummy’s Tomb (1942), The Mummy’s Ghost (1944), and The Mummy’s Curse (1944). These movies are the landmark films that inspired an entire genre of movies and continue to be major influences on motion pictures to this day.
MummyFest, a day-long celebration hosted by the Chatham-Kent Museum, will also feature mummy-themed fun in Studio One. There will be an out-of-town ‘guest’ mummy on display, as well as mummy-themed merchandise, reconstruction casts and other sculptures. Kids can paint their faces like an Egyptian and make a mummy mask. Adults can enjoy a cold MummyMartini at the cash bar. Wrapped snacks will also be available. There is mummy fun for the whole family! Parental guidance is suggested for the mummy movies shown in the Kiwanis Theatre.
Get a head start on your Hallowe’en thrills! Come see The Mummy as it was meant to be seen- on the big screen!
