BONUS EP 445 - BLOOD FROM THE MUMMY'S TOMB (1971) BLURAY REVIEW - RELEASE DATE 6th APRIL 2026

Welcome to this special Bonus Episode of The Podcast Under the Stairs.

Duncan is back to review a late-era entry from Hammer Film Productions, Blood from the Mummy’s Tomb which stands apart from the studio’s earlier monster-led formula by reworking classic Mummy lore through a more psychological and intriguingly subversive lens. Directed by Seth Holt and based on a story by Bram Stoker, the film shifts the horror inward centred on identity, possession, and female power. Arriving during a period of declining commercial success for Hammer, the film didn’t redefine the studio’s fortunes, but has since earned recognition as one of its more unusual and thematically rich horrors.

This new Collector’s Edition brings the film to 4K for the first time with a brand-new Dolby Vision restoration, offering a strong presentation of one of Hammer’s more visually distinctive late-period releases. The set is packed with both archival and newly produced extras, alongside collectible physical content.

Features include:

  • 4K UHD & Blu-ray discs

  • New 4K Dolby Vision restoration

  • Multiple new featurettes and interviews

  • Audio commentary

  • Archival materials including TV/radio spots and galleries

  • 64-page booklet with essays and original press kit

  • Brand-new artwork,

  • Two posters & a release date of 6th April 2026.
