I only watch tv occasionally, but whenever i do one of the movie channels is invariably showing either Mummy 1 or Mummy 2.

Is there a movie that is repeated more on korean tv?!?! Surely there can't be!

Why don't you go out and rent (or preferably buy) the DVD of the orignal The Mummy, 1932, starring Boris Karloff? I haven't watched it in so long that I've decided that's what I'll be doing tonight. Yay! And thank you.



Before Korea had cable TV, we had the regular 3 or 4 Korean channels and AFKN in English. AFKN just loved showing The Sand Pebbles, 1966, starring Steve McQueen, as their late-late-late movie on weekends. It was beyond the point of insanity. God, how many times have I watched that damn film. Drunken.

I still like the cat scene. Other than that, I just throw something else into the DVD player.

They do like to show it though...

Boris Karloff is the MAN!! rumour has it he did it all with one little make-up kit and his rubbery face. i also adore Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee in their '50s horror films.

and Boris did the voice in the original Grinch!

While not Karloff and not a film, you might enjoy this heart-warming little story of the London fog and the time the Guru took a room for 30 shillings a week.



It's introduced by an actor who decades later played one of the leading characters in the television show M*A*S*H.

True Lies

It's on again right now, it was ok the first time I saw it but now I just want to throw things at the TV every time it comes on. Why oh why can't they find something original to show??
