Land of the Pharaohs (1955)

A captured architect designs an ingenious plan to ensure the impregnability of tomb of a self-absorbed Pharaoh, obsessed with the security of his next life.

Nicely assembled large-scale production has lots to show and is fairly entertaining, but is highly marred by wooden performances and dialogue to match. 

Halliwell*: "Unexpected, interesting excursion into Ancient Egypt, distended by Cinemascope, basically a macabre melodrama with a final spectacular twist. The engineering details would make a fascinating documentary."

Maltin**1/2: "Entertaining, if fruity spectacle...filmed on an epic scale. Hawks claimed neither he nor his writers (including William Faulkner and Harry Kurnitz) "knew how a pharaoh talked"...and it shows. Still worth catching for great revenge ending and now-campy villainy by Collins."

Satan's Cheerleaders (1977)

The janitor at a local high school is actually the scout for a coven of Satanists on the lookout for a virgin to sacrifice.

A Countess from Hong Kong (1967)

A White Russian countess, stows away on a luxury liner at Hong Kong, determined to seek a new life in America.

Remarkably unfunny comedy, Chaplin's very last work, is stagey, repetitive and somehow has the wrong pace, although the cast definitely must have had a good time.

Halliwell (no star): "Flatulent comedy with neither the sparkle of champagne nor even the fizz of lemonade: Chaplin's writing, direction and music are alike soporific, and commiserations are due to the cast."

Maltin*1/2: "...Chaplin's attempt to make old-fashioned comedy sinks fast, though everybody tries hard...Badly shot, badly timed, badly scored. A pity, because this is Chaplin's cinematic swan song."
