Wolves of Kultur is a 1918 adventure film serial directed by Joseph A. Golden. It was Charles Hutchison's first serial and though he was the second lead, the film made him a star. Originally 15 chapters, it survives today only in an edited 7 chapter version, cut to showcase Hutchison's stunt work.[1] The story has a war preparedness theme as an unnamed foreign power threatens America's security.
