Title: Flash Gordon Cliff Hangers and Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe are one and the same!
Review: Swept up in a nostalgia mood, I purchased the two CD set of old Flash Gordon "Cliff Hangers" and a single CD entitled "Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe". Little did I know that each was the same 12 episode serial that I saw in the movie matinee so many years ago. "The Purple Death" is also a title that may be attributed to this particular serial of Flash with Buster Crabbe as Flash. SO, buyers beware, these two titles are the same thing. One just uses two discs and more packaging than the other.The content is just as I remembered from my childhood, but in this day and age, all of those cutting edge 1940 special effects are quite comical. The dressed up lizards are great monsters. I wonder if kids of today would even like these serials. But, I have waited for a long time to see some of these episodes again. I just wish that I didn't have two of the same thing.Oh well.Keep on watching!
