Ancient Artifact
Hard to review this. Perhaps there's no reason to. Most of this serial is lost. Since so much of it is missing, the film does move like greased lightning, with constant narration explaining what's going on to try to make sense of what would otherwise be a jumble.
The music score is circus-like for much of it, of course, but otherwise the dramatic music only sometimes matches what is going on.
One notable bit is the wild scene wherein pretty heroine Alice gets roped and yanked out of her car by some ruffians driving by, and is dragged down the road for miles -- she should be killed or at least badly torn up, but ends up with only a few scratches. But it's a ruthless, harsh idea to have this done to a woman, rather than the male lead.
