Product Description

Video Details

Buster Crabbe stars as Flash Gordon in this classic 1930s serial presented for the first time on DVD. Humanity is doomed to destruction! A distant planet has broken its orbit and is headed straight toward the Earth. While Dr. Hans Zarkov works feverishly to finish a rocket ship of his own design, internationally renowned polo player and Yale graduate Flash Gordon is a passenger on a small plane where he meets fellow passenger Dale Arden. When a meteor storm destroys their aircraft, Flash and Dale bail out and land near Zarkov's ship. The great scientist enlists them to join him on his quest to save Earth, and the heroic trio blasts off into space to rendezvous with the runaway planet Mongo.

Great Getaway May 24 2002
By A Customer
Format:DVD
If you are looking for a thought provoking masterpiece to inspire you this certainly is not the movie for you. This is the perfect getaway for those rainy Saturday afternoons when you are looking for mindless entertainment, and thats what this movie delivers. This Saturday serial is full of all the bad acting, worn out cliches and lousy special effects which makes it so fun to watch. People will find this movie quite dated, even "Ming the Merciless" is a nice guy by todays standards, but that only adds to the charm and innocence of the experience. This will never make any top ten list, but certainly it is entertaining and campy enough to make it cult classic.

A Bona Fide Sci-fi Classic May 26 2000
By Jesmat
Format:DVD
The most striking feature of this DVD is the picture quality - it's superb! I doubt you will find a better print of this serial anywhere. All 13 episodes are shown in full (including the titles) so the DVD's producers have done a great job. I have bought all three of Buster Crabbe's Flash Gordon adventures on DVD and recommend them all, but 'Space Soldiers' has to be the best. Jean Rogers sizzles as 'Dale Arden' in a storyline containing just a hint of sexual undertones. DVD purists might complain about the lack of special features, but surely they're missing the point. In an age when many sci-fi films are full of pretentious nonsense, 4 hours of escapist fun on one silver disc is special in itself. Highly recommended!
