Best moment: The only truly good part of the movie is the final "fight". But that's only good slightly, not even remarkably good.
Worst Moment: Well, it starts with a dance number, so we know it's gonna be painful. Then the next 10 minutes is of stereotypical southerners and such great lines as "The Devil's on the loose and he's dancing with the mummy!" (groan). Then we have another "exciting" priest initiation sequence, which we have seen 3 times already. But then we go to ANOTHER flash back going over the "unsacred love, sacrilege, buried alive etc. etc." thing, which we've seen in both the original Mummy and in The Mummy's Hand.
Fluke: The Mummy and his "princess" ended up in the last movie in a swamp in Mapleton, Mass. Since when did the fictional town of Mapleton get transported to Louisiana?

Best moment: The card trick sequence, in which Babe tries to pull a card trick on a magician for drinks. Well, he's doing it against a magician, so he loses. For some reason I find that just as funny as anything that happened in "Abbott and Costello meet the Mummy". Also worth noting is a bar-room brawl.
Worst Moment: The flashback to Ancient Egypt, which uses the same exact footage as the flashback to ancient egypt in The Mummy, only to make things worse, instead of Boris Karloff's face, we see Tom Tyler's cut in for some new footage.
Fluke: They show ALOT of stuff that's South American pyramid related that does not go along with Egypt (like stones with faces on them, and jungle like atmospheres.) (Note: This is due to them sharing sets with a Jungle picture).
