The Phantom vows to kill the man who put him away, he even says when he is going to do it. The police obviously think they can get The Phantom easily, but of course things do not go to plan...
The premise is promising but the execution is at times shocking. Overall the film is rather shoddy and rushed. The acting is also pretty awful especially from Allene Ray, Violet Knights and Tom O'Brien who must play one the worst police officer roles in history. Of course being an early talkie some of the silent movie actors had not yet transitioned to the different disciplines and method of acting in a sound movies, so everything is a bit awkward and overly dramatic. It isn't all terrible and is worth watching despite everything, there is a kind of campy appeal about the whole farce.
