Don't Tread Lon Chaney, 1 November 2009
4/10
Author: wesconnorsehny from Earth

Imprisoned for 15 years, limber Lon Chaney (as David Webster) breaks out of jail. He wants revenge on the man who framed him, now successful businessman Ralph Lewis (as Fletcher Burton). Later, Mr. Chaney hopes to find a long-lost daughter. In order to avoid being recaptured by detective DeWitt Jennings (as Doyle), Chaney takes refuge with smarmy Chinatown pal Noah Berry (as Li Fang).

Cheney disguises himself as a cripple, by twisting his legs and assuming crutches; he expects, perhaps too optimistically, nobody will recognize a straight-legged Lon Chaney. The plot thickens when Chaney discovers angelic daughter Edith Roberts (as Marjorie Vaughn) is in love with Jack Mulhall (as Ted Burton), the son of his despised enemy. A relatively less successful recycling of previous hits.
