Another mummy-based offering from Hammer except there's no real mummy as the body of evil queen Tera is perfectly preserved apart from a missing hand. This is a very average offering with the characters having to explain the plot as they go along.
Margaret Fuchs is having nightmares connected with her father's ( Andrew Keir replacing Peter Cushing who had to drop out ) discovery of an Egyptian queen on the day she was born. Now her appearance strikes terror in the hearts of the expedition's members apart from the evil Corbett ( James Villiers ) who wants her to fulfil her destiny.
Valerie Leon ( as Margaret Fuchs )
Sex : Margaret sleeps with her boyfriend Todd
Death : Survives ( but possibly as Tera )
Big-breasted Valerie is remembered for a long string of glamorous bit parts in the late sixties and seventies particularly in the Carry On series and a couple of Bond films. In the last three decades her appearances have been more sporadic but she's still active. She is now 73.
Tamara Ustinov ( as Veronica )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
Another nothing part for Tamara here.
Penelope Holt ( as Nurse )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
This is Penelope's only screen role. I'm guessing she was the daughter of director Seth Holt who died on set.
