I'm not sure if they kept the full Readick intro because Welles liked it better, or if it's because Readick being passed over for this role was a major slight. So more of a homage to the contributions of Readick's years of voicing that character, immediately before they decided to make it a bigger production and gave the part to a bigger star.

Love how the characters always seems to shine brightly through these classic actors!!!

These are great old flicks ,, seen some of these but who cares , they're all worth the re watch , better than anything Hollyweirdos putting out in the last 20 years

I use to listen to the radio show the shadow it was really good. And the whistler. These were great shows. There use to be more radio shows but I can't think of the names of them. Amos and Andy Gorge and Alice. There was westerns too. Miss them to this day. Wish I had one of those old battery operated radios now it would be worth a lot of money and one of those old batteries that was good LOL. Things was better back then. Neighbors knew their neighbors and some times everyone the whole town or city. Now people don't even know their neighbor next door. The families would get together on Sundays after church for a big meal and games of all kinds. Go fishing on Saturday be in by dark to listen to the radio shows at 6pm till 9 PM then to bed. The shows was like 30 minutes or less. We'd only listen when the shows was on. Save batteries. I miss the family get togethers and the home cooked meals. We go on picnics too get in the car drive on dirt roads till we found a place that had a big tree for shade and get out the food and eat us kids would run and play. Way the adults did there thing. Fried chicken, potatoe salad, was the main things my mom made. For picnics we sure enjoyed those days. Great show you have here hope to see more of the old shows. Thanks

So I've been watching black and whites for a minute now.. They're Great! When the Shadow Strikes(1937) popped up in my suggestions I was blown away! (1994) So I searched for it that evening and found this, so I searched a list of original Shadow movies... This one wasn't listed.. Though so far, it appears to be the original or at least the inspiration to all the rest! Wish I still had the figure and the car! Now I will see how good these films are: Thank you

The films that Hollywood cranks out today are mostly rewrites of early films loaded with C.G.I. etc in my opinion. I think that in order to consider yourself a film buff you need to study all aspects of it from silent age, the silver age and the golden age of films. These are a fine example of what was being cranked out at the time. Thanks up loader.

Over 90% of silent era movies are lost to some extent, and even 75% of early sound film is lost. They simply didn't take film preservation seriously until the late 30s or so... even then, in other countries, films got lost due to war and other factors. Indonesia did have a film industry and produced quite a few movies in the silent and early sound era... almost all of which were lost in the war. It's really sad just how little we really have from the era.

Just to clarify for those who may be confused, this is not based on the pulp magazine/radio character The Shadow. This is based on a novel/play called The Shadow, & has no relation to the pulp/radio character, although, I do think that the filmmaker's deliberately designed the villain of this movie to resemble the pulp Shadow. I've seen the cover of the novel this is based on, & the man in the illustration looks nothing like the pulp Shadow.

I liked it. Even though the acting was kind of like local theater. Really liked it.
