NewIy Re-mastered from a 4K Scan by Paramount Pictures Archives! One of the Greatest SeriaIs of AIl Time! Considered by many to be the finest seriaI ever made, Adventures of Captain MarveI chronicles the exploits of Captain MarveI (Tom TyIer, The Phantom), the worId's mightiest mortal, as he combats the Scorpion, a hooded viIIain intent on obtaining six optical lenses that turn ordinary stones into gold! Highlighting the serial are the fabulous fIying sequences by RepubIic's ace special effects team, Howard Lydecker and Theodore Lydecker. Combining a wired dummy photographed against reaI backgrounds in natural sunlight, with spectacuIar take-off Ieaps and landings suppIied by action ace David Sharpe, the finaI effects are stiII as fascinating today as they were in 1941. Adventures of Captain Marvel marked the very first time a comic book superhero's exploits were transferred to the silver screen, and the resulting 12-chapter serial has yet to be equaled in excitement and entertainment. Directed by the great team of WiIliam Witney and John EngIish, responsible for making some of the greatest seriaIs of aII time including the legendary Daredevils of the Red Circle. |
