The original Batman serial from the early 1940s follows the development ofCaped Crusader during his early days, as he fights to find his place in society. This extends to both his capacity as billionaire corporate head in charge of his father's company, as well as the vigilante savior to Gotham City. Bruce Wayne (Lewis Wilson) and his trusty sidekick Robin (Douglas Croft) set out to do battle against the nefarious plots of Dr. Tito Daka (J. Carrol Naish), but Daka's reach is greater than the pair of crime fighters imagined. His radium-powered death ray can demolish anything in its path, and he has an army of electronic zombies to carry out his bidding. Dr. Daka's position as a former Japanese wartime espionage agent gave rise to what some call racism in these shows, but these plot conceits are reflective of the cultural fears of the time.

    The Best Serial In My Mind

    By daniel  Jun 26, 2006

    Pros: Batman fighting sequences.

    Cons: The role of Robin.

    THis serial is a first rate film with one exception. The role of Robin should have gone to someone who is smaller than Batman and younger. Tghe whole look of this film is quitely done well. A great film. A wonderful idea for Batman and Robin. A lot o...f fun to watch this installment of the Caped Crusader and the Boy Wonder. Later several movies would come out and then in 66, a full length Television show on the Caped Crusader and the Boy Wonder. This film is worth watching. Don't miss this. Last year we saw batman Begins. That movie is like this serial. Same Characters. same villian. Read more Less
