I've always wondered if the legendary European version (with topless hand maidens) actually exists in a vault somewhere...? Wish they'd re-release this DVD.Has been an age since I've seen it and it's always been one of my favorites.
THE MUMMY is very good value, Sam. Always worth a viewing. A beautiful looking film. One of the few where you can see every penny of the budget up there on the screen. Not that there was that much of a budget! Looking at some of the key book stills from THE MUMMY, you can see, in the background one or two topless maidens...and I wouldn't be surprised if they made it into the other versions of the prints...but where these prints are now ..who knows?

Thanks for your comment though, Sam.
