Zita's Demonic 'Do

Recently my wife and I were watching the 1932 version of "The Mummy" starring Boris Karloff and Zita Johann, when Kay gasped out. "My God, look at her hair." I looked up from my computer and was actually shocked to see the mark of the beast in Zita Johann's hair. I have no idea how many times I have watched "The Mummy" but I never noticed this before...

I took to the inter-webs hoping to find more information, wether it was strictly a happy accident, or maybe it was snuck in there by Director Karl Freund or possibly Jack Pierce. It's also a well known that Zita had a strong belief in the occult, maybe she was the culprit!

But saddly, I came up empty handed.

I didn't find out anything about her hair, but I did discover that the UPC number for "The Mummy" on VHS is 999:2860 and that the original DVD release happened in 1999 surly there must be some dark work afoot!

You be the judge!
