As far as picture quality goes, not only is this the best version of SOS I've seen, it's currently the best looking DVD of any Lugosi serial. Roan tends to do excellent work at great prices, I've never seen a Roan dvd with a bad picture. Mine does have all 12 chapters, the previous reviewer may have gotten a defective copy.

This is one of the first cliff hangers available on DVD, and (I truly hope), one of many future Republic Studios serials.

"S.O.S. Coast Guard" is a terrific showcase for Bela Lugosi. Most Lugosi serials were no-budget affairs, but this 1937 Republic effort remains a noted exception.

Republic pulls out all the stops in a memorable finale. Lugosi never made a better chapterplay than this one.
