Fear Of Mummy Stills

"Yami Ni Hikaru Me" or "Fear Of The Mummy", or "Fear For The Mummy" is about as obscure of a movie as we've seen lately! You can't hardly find out anything about it, except that it was directed by the virtually unknown Masakura Tamura and starred Bob Strickland in his 7th and last film, and that it was really a series of TV episodes edited into a movie.

Chillin' before it's time to go to work, then the alarm goes off and the Mummy has to find a trench coat so that he can stroll on down to the local bar and get a drink!! Some days it just doesn't pay to get up!!

Tabonga found us a copy in a pawnshop somewhere in Yokkaichi and the quality was barely worth watching, but the inventive soundtrack of eerie Casio noodling combined with some meandering guitar licks that sound a lot like something from one of the German "Dr. Mabuse" films and composed by God only knows who, makes it more than worthwhile!!

So, you want weird? That's why we're here!! Let the count down continue!!!
