Return of Chandu (1934) | Complete Serial - All 12 Chapters | Bela Lugosi

The Black Magic cult of Ubasti, based on the isle of Lemuria, believes that Nadji, a princess of Egypt, is a reincarnation of their long-dead goddess, Ossana, and intend to sacrifice Nadji so that Ossana may be resurrected. Nadji has taken refuge at the California home of Frank Chandler, an American raised in the east and possessed of White Magical powers, who calls himself "Chandu". Vindhyan, high priest of the cult's California outpost, learns of this and ultimately succeeds in placing her in a trance which Chandu cannot easily break, propelling him to move her to safety, choosing the port of Suva in the South Seas.

Bela Lugosi is as happy as a fox in the woods playing a role he was born for.

Anyone know what kind of electronic instrument or synthesizer would create the eerie sound effect at 41:04? Have heard this sound before in dream or hypnosis sequences in vintage films.

Good ol' Chandu and his ol' cousin Lou.

This is awesome to find. why we invented youtube

[@MiqueCapel]

oh oh Lemuria...

[@tazzahmed511]

Bela Lugosi's just appearance is enough to make it a cult classic! Golden oldies! The nephew and his girl is so pathetic & waste of space, that coz of them the villains gets away with the princess. Besides these two idiots, it was a marvellous spectacle.

Why does Nadji have a Spanish accent - if she is Egyptian?

[@SantiagoBernebeu]

A nice serial to watch and easy on the eye as opposed to the other ones that has the usual fight scenes that complete wrecks the property. I couldn't believe @1:11:42, the character was doing a Nazi salute...wow! Many thanks for posting as I appreciate it.

@ 1:38:20 "Thy mortal fears for the safety of thy love have been thy underwear."

[@jmacmanus4445]

...have been thy undoing"...not thy underwear.

[@docstomp5524]

So many adds. Come on

Ads? Never seen one. Smart people use ad-blockers 😎

Comedy MX needs to conserve this film badly! It's in a state of deterioration!
