Originally released as Secret Service in Darkest Africa, the setting and the Nazis/Arabs in this serial were the inspiration for Raiders of the Lost Ark! This has plenty of deathtraps and dynamite that still pack a punch, including an electric torpedo, a steel-toothed execution wheel, a ray cannon, and a dynamite-laden graveyard! The hero is Rod Cameron as Rex Bennett, from G-men vs. the Black Dragon! Includes the famous scene in which our hero Rex demonstrates exactly what he thinks of a portrait of Hitler!
