LOST JUNGLE, THE(1934):
In the set: 100 Greatest Sci-Fi Classics
This is an edited version of a serial of
the same name! As it is, unluss you're a
big fan of mistreated animals, circuses or
Mickey Rooney(yep, he was one of the kids
in the early part of the movie), you probably
won't especially care for this!! C-
A review from an IMDb.com customer:
This is not a bad little serial. It has few
of the standard serial cliches that bug me,
especially not the cliffhanger endings that
end up happening completely differently at
the start of the next episode (watch the
original Captain America serial to see
a LOT of that).
Clyde Beatty is a nice enough guy, though
obviously not an actor...but then few of
the real-life celebrities that did movies
and serials in the 30's & 40's were (Red
Grange, Frank Hawks, Sammy Baugh...though
Houdini pulled it off back in 1919). There
are a lot of animal action shots, which
is a pleasure to watch. Clyde has this
stupid hypnotic eye power over the beasts
at a couple of points in the story, but
those moments are easily ignored.
All in all a nice little serial...fun,
good locations, good guys, bad guys,
wild animals, lost treasure...sounds
good to me! - Vigilante-407
