Review by PUNQ ★★

The Iron Claw was one of the big serials which 'Serial Queen' Pearl White did in 1916. White is probable best known for The Perils of Pauline (1914) and The Exploits of Elaine (1914). The Iron Claw is sadly a lost serial. 19 of the 20 chapters are missing. Only Episode 7 is known to exist today and that's what I saw. While we start with loose ends from the start to the finish, the story within these 25 minutes are easy enough to follow. It gives an idea what the serial was about along with a few action scenes to fill the time effectively. Coolest thing was "The Iron Claw" himself with a claw replacing his left hand! White wasn't too prominent in this episode as it was mostly a masked guy being the hero here.
