Lawless Range (1935)

John is sent by his father to answer a call for help by one of the latter's friends in another town. It turns out that said friend goes missing and the town is facing a problem of lack of supplies due to a series of robberies. John volunteers to bring supplies to the town with the help of a group of men.

The plot here is nearly identical to that of Blue Steel, which had the same main actor and which I reviewed a few days ago. Again, there is a distinguished citizen who is acting in cahoots with bandits to expel a town's inhabitants in order to get hold of the gold which lies in the town's underground. And once again the protagonist offers to bring supplies to the starved town. Frankly, too much of the same thing is liable to get one bored, though the film has its share of action, comic-book thrills and dubbed singing.

Rating: 32
