Flash! (Ah-ha!) Wow, it's time to review one of the first-ever superhero movies! I mean, technically, it's a science-fiction movie because Flash Gordon doesn't really have any powers. And also, technically, it's not even a movie, it's a 13-part cliffhanger serial. But that doesn't matter, because this week we're reviewing the one and only 'Flash Gordon' from 1936! Will our hero, played by Buster Crabbe, be able to survive the many alien creatures he's forced to fight? Will he overcome the racist caricature that is the main bad guy? Find out as we review this 4-hour-long epic adventure that only one of us managed to finish.Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjfdXHxK_rIUsOEoFSx-hGAPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?
