THE UNDERSEA KINGDOM: THE MOVIE. This great 1936 serial, now an edited and digitally enhanced movie, is the story of Ray “Crash” Corrigan, Athlete and Navy Lieutenant, who joins Professor Norton in a Rocket Submarine to inspect an enigmatic location beneath the Atlantic Ocean. Following a suspicious earthquake, and detecting a series of signals, Professor Norton leads an expedition, including Crash and reporter Diana Compton, three sailors (Briny Deep, Salty, Joe) and their pet parrot Sinbad. Unknown to the expedition until it is underway and in trouble, Billy has stowed away on the Rocket Sub as well. Finding a lost kingdom they become embroiled in an Atlantean civil war between Sharad (with his White Robes) and the usurper Unga Khan (with his Black Robes) who wishes to conquer Atlantis and then destroy the upper world with earthquakes generated by his Disintegrator. Thus he will rule the world—unless he can be stopped in time! Great 30s Tesla death rays and other weird Atlantean technology. The original movie about Atlantis! Plus period trailers.
