Wiki.
The Phantom is a 1961 American TV film. It was a pilot for a proposed TV series based on the comic strip The Phantom. It is widely believed that the pilot never aired, but decades after it was filmed it leaked onto the internet.
The project was developed in 1956 with Roger Creed, a former stuntman, to play the Phantom.
The title of the pilot episode is "No Escape". It has been criticized as having an incoherent script which fails to provide important backstory and motivation for the characters or explanation for the settings.
