Serial-mania continues this week at the Chauvel Cinematheque with the second part of Barrie Pattison's look at the Saga of the Serials. This Monday the 26th of January at 6:30pm sharp, Barrie will reacquaint us with the legendary super-hero figures of the classic serial - Batman, Zorro, Flash Gordon, Dan Winslow and others. Many believe the cycle reaches its peak with Hollywood’s Saturday morning comic strip heroes. In this program, see caped crusaders battle malevolent mega-villains and their paunchy underlings and understand the the ongoing influence of the form on the Hollywood blockbuster - James Bond, Batman, Indiana Jones, etc.
