The Curse Of The Mummy's Tomb. 1964

Archaeologists and a American investor ship a sarcophagus from Egypt to London, containing the remains of a prince, someone has a amulet that can bring the dead mummy back to life.

This was a interesting take on the Mummy genre from Hammer, from the first half it's more talking than anything, disagreements and killings, then we get the background story of the Prince and then the pace speeds up a bit to the Mummy going on a killing spree. The dark fog of the scenes in London add in the gloomy atmosphere. This may not be the best mummy film in the franchise but certainly not the worst and worth a watch for the set back grounds, great cinematography, surely though the makers could have gave the main character some more screen time.
