On The Trail Of Fu Manchu, 9 July 2010
Author: bkoganbing from Buffalo, New York

In Border Devils Harry Carey is on the trail of the murderer of a couple of friends of his. For one of those murders he's been neatly framed and has to bust jail to do his investigation.

One of the strengths of the film is that other than Gabby Hayes whom he picks up as a sidekick, Carey is never sure exactly who the players are in this story, just who are the good, the bad, and the just plain stupid. He's after the leader of the gang, a mysterious guy known only as the general.

Japanese actor Tetsu Komai is the General and all I can say there is that he plays it in the best Fu Manchu tradition. The film also deals in human trafficking, a subject definitely not for the Saturday matinée kiddie trade.

Olive Carey, Harry's wife in real life makes an appearance in the film, but not as the leading lady. That is reserved for Kathleen Collins.

Border Devils is a cheaply made thing with the usual Poverty Row lack of production values. Still this is not a bad film on a subject not usually reserved for the western.
