Where Are My Family Jewels??,
By Bindy Sue Frønkünschtein "bigfootsalienbaby" (under the rubble) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Whispering Shadow, Vol. 2 (DVD)
The search for the crown jewels of the czar continues! Meanwhile, the true identity of the Whispering Shadow grows foggier by the minute! Just who IS he?? Is it Professor Strang (Bela)? The odd Mr. Steinbeck? Someone else? There are many suspects in this last half of the story and those wacky jewels just keep hopping along, winding up with almost everyone at least once! Can Foster and inspector Raymond solve the mysteries before it's too late? Watch and see...

Bela's First Serial...,
By Bindy Sue Frønkünschtein "bigfootsalienbaby" (under the rubble) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Whispering Shadow, Vol. 1 (DVD)
Bela Lugosi is Professor Strang, magician and owner / operator of Strang's Wax Works And House Of Mystery. Is he also the notorious Whispering Shadow? A thief has hidden the czar's crown jewels somewhere in the warehouse of the Empire Storage Company. Everyone is after them! Empire's top employee, Foster, watched his younger brother murdered at the hands of the Shadow and his gang of thugs. He now seeks revenge and will stop at nothing to put an end to the sinister criminal. Keep your eye on the jewels! They jump from person to person, box to box, like a crazy shell game! Who will end up with them? You won't find out in these first six chapters, but the fun never stops! Enough shootouts, explosions, truck hijacks, and fisticuffs to keep you biting those nails! Be sure to get vol. 2...

The sinister Professor Strang--Bela Lugosi no less,
By
This review is from: Whispering Shadow (VHS Tape)
Actually the good (or is he good?) professor is the focal point of this serial. Basic plot line has the young hero tracking down his brother's murderer who is known as the whispering shadow; and it sure as heck looks like Professor Strang is one and the same. One little difficulty, our hero falls in love with the professor's daughter while he's trying to prove that her dad is a criminal mastermind. I don't think I'm spoiling the plot for anybody if I suggest that maybe Bela isn't the bad guy after all, although he does a darn good job of trying to convince us he is! The other review here complains about the long flashbacks. Don't forget, this is a 13 chapter serial which was originally shown one chapter a week over a three month period, so the flashbacks are obviously necessary. And no, they should not be edited out for today's audiences...we serial fans want them exactly as they were. btw, I do suggest viewing this serial a chapter a day, or at least no more than three chapters a day. That way, you will get more out of it with less feeling of repetition.
