Description: . Of all the early radio shows adopted from the classic newspaper comic pages in the '30s and '40s, none was more intriguing or exciting than the action-packed tales of Terry and the Pirates. Columbia Pictures brought Terry and the Pirates to the screen in 15 thrill-packed episodes in 1940 featuring an excellent cast of screen favorites. Directed in a style that combined action and considerable comedy, director Horne led the cast in an adventure that centered around the discovery of a vast hidden treasure. Along the treacherous 15-episode route we have contacts with mysterious "Tiger Men" a savage gorilla, exploding ammunition sheds and countless other thrills that totally captivated Saturday matinee audiences week after week. This serial was not as well preserved as some of Columbia's cliffhangers, so the missing audio has been replaced with a whole new audio track, thanks to a superb cast down in Texas and Oklahoma. Do not let this bother you, however, as this is the most complete restored print available. Originally released in 1940. Serial comes complete with Chapters ships in SLIM DVD case with color insert.
