Featured review
Crime Drama Out West
From a Story by the Seemingly Forever In Print Creator of Perry Mason, Erle Stanley Gardner, this Slightly Above Average B-Movie Stars the also Prolific Richard Dix. With His Square Jaw, Dick Tracy Look and Handsome Ruggedness the Actor Managed to Work for Four Decades.
The Deep-Voiced, One Note Thespian is out to Avenge the Death of His Brother at the Hands of Gangsters and Travels Westward Ho, so much of this Crime Drama takes place at a Ranch and in a Small Dusty Town near Reno.
Things move along quite Nicely with the Tension Halted at Times for some Romance, this is a Not-Bad Entry that just Rises above Pedestrianism because of its Oily Villain, J. Carrol Naish trying to keep His Band of Cutthroats at bay while Bed-Ridden, Creating some much Needed Suspense.
Overall Worth a Watch but there aren't Enough Genre Flourishes in the Film to Amount to much more than a Time-Passer with an Atypical Out West Setting, where Dix and the Director must have felt at Home Considering the Number of Westerns They Cranked Out.
