About The Fighting Marines
Corporal Larry Grant and Sergeant "Mac" McGowan, of the United States Marine Corps, are rival for the love of Frances Schiller, but team up to hunt down "The Tiger Shark," a mad, scientific wizard who is holding Sergeant William Schiller, Frances' brother, a prisoner on a wild, jungle island in the Pacific.
Directed by B. Reeves Eason, Joseph Kane, The Fighting Marines leans on a strong ensemble — Grant Withers, Adrian Morris, Ann Rutherford — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1935.
