  • With Flash Gordon, along with his faithful companions, Dale Arden and Doctor Zarkov, having twice before thwarted his evil plans for conquest of the universe, Ming the Merciless renews his assault on the Earth, this time by coating the inhabited portions of the planet with a deadly dust, which strikes its victims down with the unyielding Purple Death.
    Flash, Dale, and Zarkov must journey through the far reaches of space to the forest kingdom of Arboria, on the planet Mongo, to enlist the aid of Prince Barin and his Tree Men, where, with the additional assistance of Queen Fria of Frigia and her soldiers, Flash and his friends must discover a way to put a stop to the Purple Death and disrupt the nefarious plans of Ming and his minions.
    This is fan editor Billy Batson's feature length cut of the 1940 public domain serial FLASH GORDON CONQUERS THE UNIVERSE, with Larry "Buster" Crabbe, Carol Hughes, Charles Middleton, Frank Shannon, and Anne Gwynne.

    I don't care what anyone says, the original Princess Aura is a rare and natural beauty. You just know all of her parts are real !
    Also, even though the FX are (wonderfully) cheesy, The Purple Death is still much more entertaining than all Star Bores after The Empire Strikes Back !!!

      Dude, it was the 1930s/1940s! This was "'B-Grade' Sci-Fi"!
      Even back then, the producers of shows like this, had to do a lot of 'Recycling'. As a matter of fact, they practically 'invented the concept.
      It's where shows like, "Star Trek", learned how to do it.
      Besides, the music (Franz Liszt's "Les Preludes") was most likely the 'inspiration' for the 'costumes' worn by the cast.

    Nice quality video for 480P. Thanks for the upload😄. Of the three serials this is my least favorite. Jean Rogers (Dale), Richard Alexander (Barin) and Priscilla Lawson (Aura) are sorely missed, as they defined the characters they portrayed. Also, the soundtrack lacks the atmosphere and the excitement of the previous 2 serials' soundtracks, e.g. the use of parts of Franz Waxmans score from the Bride of Frankenstein added so much to the mood of "Trip to Mars" (like the theme played when Dr. Pretorious meets the Frankenstein monster down in the crypts is aptly applied to the Clay People in the caves).

    • @mmpotash1
      @mmpotash1 2 года назад +1

      Yes, the soundtrack repeats over and over ad nauseum. The original music in the first two series composed by Franz Waxman was perfect so many ways and is sorely missing. Happily it was used again later in the Bride of Frankenstein.
