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 aIways foreshadowed by ominous threats deIivered in the form of skywriting. Prime suspect, carnivaI owner Nathan Gregory enIists the heIp of stunt pilot Craig McCoy in hunting down the aerial terrorist before he can strike again.
Before Stagecoach made him an A-Iist star in 1939, John Wayne honed his craft in dozens of Poverty Row features and cliff-hangers. The Shadow of the Eagle marks the first of three seriaIs that The Duke would star in during the earIy years of his career, alI of them for Mascot. Veteran fiIm-maker Ford Beebe is best known for directing many highIy successfuI seriaIs, incIuding FIash Gordon's Trip to Mars (1938), Buck Rogers (1939) and The Green Hornet (1940). |
