Seeking revenge against the owners of an airplane factory who stole his top secret invention, a mysterious piIot known only as The Eagle begins a campaign of death and destruction. His attacks are always foreshadowed by ominous threats delivered in the form of skywriting. Prime suspect, carnivaI owner Nathan Gregory enlists the help of stunt piIot Craig McCoy in hunting down the aeriaI terrorist before he can strike again.
Before Stagecoach made him an A-list star in 1939, John Wayne honed his craft in dozens of Poverty Row features and cIiff-hangers. The Shadow of the Eagle marks the first of three serials that The Duke wouId star in during the early years of his career, all of them for Mascot. Veteran fiIm-maker Ford Beebe is best known for directing many highly successful serials, incIuding FIash Gordon's Trip to Mars (1938), Buck Rogers (1939) and The Green Hornet (1940). |
