This seriel was first produced in 1935. The "special" effects are just terrible but wonderful. I'm amazed at how we accepted such simple story lines. There really was a "suspension" of belief required in those days. <br />The story is about a civilization that is 20,000 feet underground, has lots of superior technology, but still rides horses. Just great. Gene gets in and out of trouble each week, with a bunch of kids helping to save the day. It a fun thing to watch, you can do it over several days or weeks, and I recommend it. especially if your over 50 years of age or have never seen Star Wars. ;-)
Viewer Reviews
The Phantom Empire was a light weight memory trip back to my youth. The journey was fun but also revelatory; it's amazing how memory can cloud reality. Stilted acting, repetitive childish dialogue, and funny non-special effects are all part of this campy romp. Just don't watch this serial with your wife or children; they will start questioning your sanity and seriously discuss your certain slide into dementia.
