The Kapeesh crew are back! (Well, some of them).
That's right, we are back for our new film reviews project. You guessed it (or you read the title) - we are tackling the Batman franchise.
And, to do it correctly, we started with the very first Batman serial film released in cinemas during the Second World War. So, that brings some interesting discussion about how Batman was used as a propaganda piece for the Americans against the Japanese (holy propaganda, Batman!), in amongst our thoughts on how it's dated from a cinematic perspective.
Join us as we delve into the performances of the very first big screen version of the Caped Crusader, the writing, music, action scenes and a barmy plot which involves ray guns and zombies.
Enjoy!
