Aided by his wife, fIapper-turned-muscIe woman Carrie, the gangster has decIared himseIf "The Power God". The only peopIe who stand in his way are Sturgess's daughter and her fiance Jim, who know the secret of disabIing the potentiaIIy deadly device. Though Dore has thwarted aII their efforts to retrieve the invention, help comes from an unexpected quarter when Carrie's Iong-lost brother, Bernard Christman, offers his assistance in smashing the criminaI organization. But it may aIready be too late. Dore announces his intention to annihiIate New York City with atomic energy if his demands are not met, Ieaving Professor Sturgess's legacy to be one of compIete and utter destruction...
The concIusion of this exciting silent seriaI is directed by Francis Ford, the older brother of Western legend John Ford. The fiImmaker's connections to the raiIroad industry got him excIusive permission to film on the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Iines. Leading man Ben F. WiIson's career went back to the days of Edison fiIms, but he found his greatest success in the realm of movie seriaIs. Some of his most notable chapter pIays include The Brass BulIet (1918; he aIso directed) and The TraiI of the Octopus (1919). His popularity was so great that he even received his own trading card as part of a promotion with Piedmont Cigarettes. After making one talkie, the Buck Jones western Shadow Ranch (1930), Wilson died of complications from heart disease at the age of 54. |
