Product Information
Boxed Set includes three titles. SPACE SOLDIERS: In this, the first film version of the popular comic strip, a distant planet has broken its orbit and is heading straight for Earth. Renowned scientist Dr. Hans Zarkov builds an escape rocket and is joined by ex-Yale football star Flash Gordon and Dale Arden, a beautiful young woman Flash has just met. They land on the fantastic runaway planet, Mongo, only to tangle with its evil ruler, Ming the Merciless, who has dastardly plans for our three heroes. Crabbe is the quintessential Flash in this 13-episode saga which was made for a then-expensive $350,000, setting a new "adult" standard for the usually more cheaply-made, kiddie-oriented movie serials of the 1930's. Flash's next incarnation was in a 1953 television series. Contains all 13 episodes!FLASH GORDON'S TRIP TO MARS: Complete and uncut 15 episodes starring "Buster" Crabbe.FLASH GORDON CONQUERS THE UNIVERSE: Contains the original 12 chapters released by Universal Pictures of the sci-fi action serial based on the Alex Raymond comic strip.Product Identifiers
