The Hurricane Express (1932) is a thrilling 12-chapter Mascot Pictures serial starring a young John Wayne. When his father is killed in a train wreck engineered by the mysterious saboteur known only as “The Wrecker,” pilot Larry Baker vows to track down the villain. With suspects ranging from rival railmen to shady aviators, and with The Wrecker’s ability to disguise himself as anyone, Larry is drawn into a relentless cycle of train chases, aerial battles, and cliffhanger escapes. Originally released in 12 weekly episodes shown in theaters, this serial was designed to keep audiences returning to find out what happened next—making it a direct precursor to the episodic storytelling that would later define television. Today, The Hurricane Express is remembered both as a high-energy railroad adventure and as an early milestone in John Wayne’s career, showcasing the suspense-driven chapter-play format that helped shape popular entertainment in the pre-TV era.
