I'm inserting reviews for items I've seen that lack one... This is so far the only silent serial that I've seen, I like the serial format, and watched this as I do all serials, watching 1 episode a day. I'm not a western fan, I like some, John Ford, Budd Boetticher efforts, but not the run of the mill types, I'm waffling as IMDb insists on a certain length of review, and there is little I can think of to say about this effort, but here goes... Note the print quality I watched was fairly poor, the basic plot is a search for some Indian gold treasure, by our hero & heroine, which their fathers discovered, they wrote the location on a cloth that has to be wrapper round a Bowie knife, before dying at the hands of the Indians; There is also a villain out to get the gold for himself, the sound serials I saw have a plot that moves along, twisting and turning, this is mostly a chase depending on who has the clues at any given time, lots of horse riding, if you like that? The 'horror' element that intrigued me is simply a bit of remote viewing by the Indian mystic woman; It would be useful if someone who liked this could review it.
