The Saturday matinee crowd got two cowboy stars for the price of one in this lavishly budgeted western serial starring former singing cowboy Dick Foran and Buck Jones. The latter contributed deadpan humor to the proceedings, making Jones perhaps the highest paid B-western comedy relief in history. The two heroes defend the Death Valley borax miners from an outlaw gang headed by Wolf Reade. An extraordinarily strong cast -- for a serial, at least -- supported the stars, headed by Charles Bickford as Reade, Leo Carillo, Lon Chaney, Jr., and silent screen star Monte Blue. Leading lady Jeanne Kelly later changed her name to Jean Brooks and starred in the atmospheric RKO thriller The Seventh Victim (1943). Universal claimed to have spent $1 million on this serial and made sure to get their money's worth by endlessly recycling the action footage in serials and B-westerns for years to come.Riders of Death Valley (1941)

Експериментальний фільм-колаж створений американським художником Джозефом Корнелом у 1936 році. Випадково знайшовши на розпродажі 16 міліметрову копію фільму «На схід від Борнео» з Роуз Гобарт у головній ролі, Корнел був настільки зачарований акторкою, що вирізав з фільму всі кадри, де її не було. До тих, що залишилися, режисер додав кадри з фільму про сонячне затемнення і перемонтував це все в окрему короткометражку, яку назвав на честь виконавиці головної ролі — «Роуз Гобарт». Також Корнел видалив оригінальний саундтрек, а замість нього додав дві пісні з платівки бразильского співака Нестора Амарала, купленої в тому ж магазині мотлоху. Під час показів режисер умисно пропускав проєкцію через блакитне скло та уповільнював плівку до швидкості, з якою демонструють німе кіно (16 кадрів на секунду проти 24 у звуковому). Це надавало кадрам зі звичайного пригодницького фільму відтінку сюрреалістичності та таємничості.Роуз Гобарт (1936)
