It's the day after Labor Day, and the start of my annual Spooky Movie Fest. There's a number of good mummy movies out there. I'm partial to Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (based on Stoker's Jewel of the Seven Stars). And honourable mention to Abbot & Costello Meet the Mummy — the grand finale is great! |

The Mummy (1932). Gorgeous, evocative photography and staging. |

The 1999 Mummy for me. But I'm not really much of a horror fan, so from the standpoint of this poll, I'm probably admiring it for the wrong reasons. |

Missing the We Want Our Mummy – 1939 (3 Stooges) link – a few more on this list |

I've seen the 1999 one and a old black-and-white one, possibly the 1932. I'm probably not the target audience for this poll. |

The 1999 reboot is good if you like modern action-adventure movies, sort of like Jurassic Park but with a mummy. Universal had various starts to rebooting The Mummy in fits and starts for about a decade. George Romero was in on two the starts, pity he didn't get to complete one, that would have been a horror movie. |

The Mummy 1999. The soundtrack alone makes it great. |

Back in the 90s one of the episodes of Amazing Stories TV series was called "The mummy's a daddy." It is gut- bustingly funny. Rarely laughed so hard in my life. |
