THE GREEN ARCHER (1940)--a colorized serial in one video

This 1940 15-chapter serial was based on Edgar Wallace's 1923 novel The Green Archer, which had previously been adapted into the silent serial of the same name in 1925 by Pathé Exchange. It starts with a struggle over the huge Bellamy estate, that ended with Michael Bellamy accused of murder and killed on the way to prison. His brother, Abel Bellamy, takes control of the estate for his own nefarious plans. Bellamy is using the Garr Castle on it as a base for his jewelry-theft ring, and he kidnaps his brother's wife to keep things quiet. Insurance investigator Spike Holland enters the case, and Bellamy continually dispatches his resident gang to do away with him. Detective Thompson, representing the law, is seldom of any help. Meanwhile, the estate's fabled "Green Archer", a masked, leotard-clad marksman, steals silently through Garr Castle and the estate grounds, confounding the enemy forces.
