1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Mississippi (1935)?

b.		When King Tutankhamens tomb was found on November 4, 1922, the person in charge was George Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon. Along with him was his daughter, Lady Evelyn Carnarvon. Rachel Weiszs character is named Evelyn Carnahan. Originally, her character was meant to be Evelyn Carnarvon. She and her brother were to be the children of the "cursed" Lord Carnarvon.

A screen capture of the "Creepshow" comic book featured in the film reveals that the letters page has letters from "Brian Hall of Ann Arbor, Mich." and "David Graves of Spruce, Maryland", among others.
