Sven- The Mummy
From Wiki- The Mummy is a 1932 American pre-Code supernatural horror film directed by Karl Freund. The screenplay by John L. Balderston was adapted from a treatment written by Nina Wilcox Putnam and Richard Schayer. Released by Universal Studios as a part of the Universal Monsters franchise, the film stars Boris Karloff, Zita Johann, David Manners, Edward Van Sloan and Arthur Byron.
In the film, Karloff stars as Imhotep, an ancient Egyptian mummy who was killed for attempting to resurrect his dead lover, Anck-es-en-Amon. After being discovered and accidentally brought to life by a team of archaeologists, he disguises himself as a modern Egyptian named Ardath Bey and searches for Anck-es-en-Amon, whom he believes has been reincarnated in the modern world.

pity poor Godzilla 1978
I was rather excited when I saw the ads for The Godzilla Power Hour in the comic books. It looked pretty good. There were some interviews published right before the show debuted in Starlog or some genre zine, which made it sound decent. By then I knew that there would not be a lot of great monster action, so I did not expect that. Jana of the Jungle looked good, and at age 13, I appreciated it on a whole 'nother level. The first episode I remember seeing was The Earth Eater, which is technically the second episode. I am not sure if I missed the first one (seems odd, dontcha think?) or if the local network started differently. I don't ever remember seeing the first episode at all, though. There is a reason for that as well, because of course there is. And I will elaborate more about that reason after the cut, so click on "there's more" please!
