How do a mint robbery AND a ghost town relate to each other?
5 January 2021
The Range Busters was a trio cowboy hero series from Monogram. In the first 2/3 of the series, it starred Dusty King, Ray Corrigan, Max Terhune and his evil devil-doll, Elmer*. Later in the series the various leads changed...and the films aren't quite as good. "Trail of the Silver Spurs" is one of these earlier Range Buster flicks.

When the story begins, you learn that the Denver Mint's been robbed of its gold (which seems pretty impossible). The Range Busters investigate and the trail leads to a ghost town which APPEARS to be empty. What's next? Well, apart from Max seeding the mines with gold, find out for yourself.

This is a pretty average Range Busters film...no better nor worst. Solid entertainment but nothing special.

*In a few of these Range Buster films, Elmer moves and talks even when Tex isn't holding him!! Truly he must he demonic...though nice demonic!
