I wish Castle made a nicer artwork for the box. The Mummy in this one has vocal cords and growls!

Like A&C MEET FRANKENSTEIN, A&C MEET THE MUMMY 400 footer is a distinct letdown considering what you already got in the 200 footer.

I agree, Joseph. The editors were lazy and mainly edited from the last 30 or so minutes from the feature.

I concur. Although, of the A&C 400'ers, "Wistful Widow" was actually decent and the print wasn't too bad. "Mummy" is definitely throws beyond "Frankenstein" as far as editing and print quality are concerned and worth buying if the price is no more than $50US.
