The Invisible Avenger (1958) [Action] [Drama]



Pablo Ramirez is an expatriate from the Caribbean nation of Santa Cruz that is under control of a military dictator called the Generalissimo. From New Orleans, Ramirez plots a revolution and his return to Santa Cruz. To assist in this and to protect him from the Santa Cruz secret police who are in New Orleans he seeks the help of Lamont Cranston through a mutual friend, jazz trumpeter Tony Alcade. In the midst of a telephone call to Cranston Tony is murdered by the secret police. Cranston and his metaphysical mentor Jogendra come to New Orleans to bring Tony’s murderers to justice and freedom to Santa Cruz.

Though no one knows the identity of the crime fighting trouble shooter The Shadow who has telephatic powers, everyone knows that he can be contacted for help through Lamont Cranston. As Cranston protects Pablo from secret police assassination and kidnapping attemps, the Generalissimo broadcasts the execution of Pablo’s twin brother that is shown on television in the United States in a scheme to draw Pablo into the open.

  1.   Thanks Timeless Classic Movies, awesome program! PS, the following is not directed at you, just something I've see a lot of lately.

    +Youtube People, just recently have been commenting WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING, but of course their avatar, name, and REPLY and THUMBS up/down is there, but NO CONTENT.  It essentially clogs the comment space with unnecessary stuff. I have seen the uploader of the actual video do this, why I don't know because they are already getting alerted to comments. What it does is it makes others do the same commentless comment. I see you put a 'Delete' for them, but it looks like you have started a bad thing by allowing a comment without a comment. Hope you can just go back to not allowing a comment unless there is one. ( note, I did comment as well with this btw)
