Thought this one would be fun. Buster Crabbe who also played Tarzan stars in this actioned packed serial. For science fiction commercials on dvd visit us at http://www.vintagetvcommercials.com
I loved the way their rocket ships kind of jerked along and backfired as they went. And Dale Arden in the first one (the blonde) was the best screamer. Better than Fay Wray.
@timberwolf84 Claude Rains was the invisible man. Then something went wring for Faye Wray and King Kong,They got caught in a celluloid jam. Then at a deadly pace it came from - outer space. And this is how the message ran...!
This was the first of three "Flash Gordon" serials produced by Universal, based on Alex Raymond's legendary Sunday comic strip- the first released in 1936, featuring Buster Crabbe, Jean Rogers, and that most dastardly and hissable of all movie villains, Charles Middleton as "Emperor Ming" {"Flash Gordon is doomed!!"}. 15 unforgettable chapters of non-stop action, stock music from "The Bride Of Frankenstein", unbelievable sets and costumes...a screen classic!!
