Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesWilliam 'Stage' Boyd was either drunk or on drugs during the filming of the final chapter, and it shows. His bad behavior on and off camera got him in so much trouble that it wrecked his career. Fellow actors in this movie didn't want to be around him when he was inebriated; this may be why he is shown alone in his final scenes. Many referred to him as a "functioning drunk". He passed away shortly after this movie was released from problems caused by his excessive drinking. A judge ordered him to add the "Stage" to his name so he wouldn't be confused with the other William Boyd, who played Hopalong Cassidy and whose career was being adversely affected by "Stage" Boyd's bad behavior.
- GaffesWhen the globe is used to pinpoint the origin of the disturbance the hero points to Mali on the globe. Supposedly unexplored territory and an area covered in deep jungles. Both are of course untrue, as Mali was both explored and is mostly desert.
- Versions alternativesVideo versions of this feature (using the title City Of Lost Men) hav the last reel of the serial's final chapter cut in after the feature proper fades out, showing the destruction of the main villains but not explaining how all the principals suddenly get from the trading post back into the underground lost city. It's not clear who is responsible for this amendment, although main titles suggest it may have been done for a 1970s reissue.

Commentaire à la une
The second half of The Lost City serial is pretty much what you would expect if you've seen part 1. Taken for what it is, and considering the time in which it was made, it's entertaining enough in it's own way. Racist by any standard, the continuous flow of villains turning into good guys and back again ( Ya gotta work in as many gimmicks as ya can to keep 'em comin' back week after week for a serial like this one. ), and the lamest natives and fight scenes ever. Bright spot ... The evil Queen was HOT. But then so is the jungle and I don't want to go there either. This flick is what you do at two a.m. Saturday night to kill time without having to think. Its kinda fun in a goofy sort of way.
