Description:
Professor Davidson and his lovely daughter Diana search Africa for the Lost City of Zoloz. Legend pegs it to be the source of a vast hidden treasure. Their search is hindered by a local crook, Singapore Smith, who wants the treasure for himself. It is further complicated by Dr. Bremmer, an international criminal, who plans to destroy the peace with the local native tribes and build a secret air base at Zoloz. Fortunately, the Phantom, who is also Diana's fiancé, is more than a match for the two villains. The Phantom, with his superhuman strength, manages to outwit each enemy move, escaping from one death trap after an other: avalanches, poison gas, flaming pyres, and explosions fail to shake his fearless spirit. With the help of his four-footed pal Devil, he finally overpowers all the enemy factions, and brings peace to the jungle once again. Another exciting serial adventure produced by Columbia Pictures and based on one of King Features' funny-paper heroes.

- The Phantom - serialThe quality of the film was fair, the acting fair to poor and the plots childish but I must remember how old this serial is. All in all not a bad trip down memory lane.

- The Phantom.......Made in 1943, The Phantom was a classic Columbia Pictures cliffhanger serial that starred Tom Tyler in the leading role. In this serial, Geoffrey Prescott takes over the mantle of The Phantom from his dying father, and must thwart Dr. Max Bremmer's plans to find the lost city of Zoloz, where the doctor intends to build a hidden airbase. To find Zoloz, the Phantom and Bremmer are both searching for pieces of a map that will lead them to the secret city, which is hidden deep in the jungle. Like most ... Read More

- Fun!The Phantom - Serial Some serials are exciting; others are just plain silly. This one lies in between. It's the best thing I've seen Tom Tyler do. (In Adventures of Captain Marvel he's pretty much limited to saying "Shazam!" so he can revert to Billy Batson...though why he'd want to is beyond me.)
Who knows where this takes place. It could be Africa; it could be India; it could be Central or South America. There's one sequence that could be Mongolia. Does it matter? Of course not! It's ... Read More

- The Phantom's Zone?Columbia Pictures was infamous for making infamously bad serials. However, through some inexplicable fluke, they made a really great serial in 1943. It was called `The Phantom.' Here are some of the things that make this serial so good:
1. Tom Tyler in the title role. He projected a strong and quietly heroic screen presence, and was athletic enough to look good in the Phantom suit. He is believable in the fight scenes. Superhero suits look good in comic strips, but usually on the screen ... Read More

- Top-notch serialI'd read that the director of the Captain Marvel serial thought Tom Tyler was a terrible actor (which is why he said a total of about 12 words the whole time), but this proves him wrong. He's a very good phantom and this is a good ride.
There are offensive stereotypes, so get ready for the occasional cringe and this is not the Royal Academy in terms of acting or writing, but if you shut down your critical brain for a while, you'll probably find yourself drawn in--a little like quicksand.
