THE CRIMSON GHOST 1946 (PUBLIC)

Pretty entertaining 12 chapter serial from Republic.

A criminal known as "The Crimson Ghost" and his henchmen are out to steal a machine called a Cyclotrode which has been invented by a scientist named Dr. Chambers (Kenne Duncan).

This device can short circuit all electrical current on the planet, and the Crimson Ghost wants it in ordwer to take over the world. In his way is a government agent named Duncan Richards (Charles Quigley) who will stop at nothing to keep the country safe.

The Crimson Ghost is really something to see. He wears a skeleton outfit, and it looks most impressive. As is usual with chapter serials, there is plenty of fighting and some of the fight scenes are very, very well done.

It moves at a lightning pace and serial fans should enjoy it. The cast also includes Linda Sterling, Clayton Moore, I. Stanford Jolley and Forrest Taylor. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
