Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Phantom Empire is a 1935 serial with Gene Autry as "The Singing Cowboy" who discovers an advanced underground civilization with robots and other high tech. Notable for being a mashup of the western, science-fiction and musical genres.The serial was later edited down into a 70-minute feature, which was released as Radio Ranch (or, alternately, Men with Steel Faces) in 1940.Do not mistake it for the 1988 low-budget film of the same name.

Abnormal Ammo: The Muranian Thunder Guard carry swords. Early on, these are demonstrated to have spring-loaded grips, making them projectile swords. Later, flamethrower swords come into play.

Ascended Fanboy: The Junior Thunder Riders Club start out as a perfectly reasonable cross between the Scouts and the Gene Autry Fan Club. After a situation forces them to adopt the motto "To the rescue!" they end up regularly pulling Autry's fat out of the fire.

Cataclysm Climax: At the very end, the "disintegrating atom-smashing ray" winds up destroying the underground city and all its people.

Action Girl: Betsy Baxter, considering the time and the fact that she's maybe twelve years old. She rides, ropes, and fights. (In real life, the actress was herself an action girl as she was a popular trick rider.)
