the mummy's shroud (1967)

In a sand pit in Berkshire, (it certainly doesn't look like Egypt), an archaeological expedition discovers the tomb of an Egyptian prince. On returning home the expedition members find the traditional curse seems to being enacted, as one by one they are being killed. How can they stop this murderous rampage?
The third incarnation of mummy's by Hammer runs through the by now standard mummy formula. It looks good, with some great performances, without rising much above the average. Enjoyable in itself but nothing great to write home about.
