Those under one hour chain made westerns were used since the thirties by poverty row companies such as Republic, Monogram, PRC, Chesterfield, Tiffany, Majestic, Mayfair...Not only westerns but also comedies, mystery yarns, dramas.... Useless to say that the stories were more or less all alike. You have to be a die hard western fan to endure this stuff. Republic pictures produced rather enjoyable movies, because this studio had the serial experience, "laboratory" experience in terms of action, editing, pace in a bland story, a boring scheme. This one makes no exception. It is a good example of what I try to explain.
