Those of you who like occasional interludes of western music will be pleased, as about half a dozen are included, most curtesy of the Bar 6 Cowboys. Otherwise , you will see various expected types of action, and a little romance in this B western, about 1 hr. long.........The venerable badman Glen Strange, as Burt Drummond, is leader of the outlaw gang that robbed a bank, killing, ranch owner, Mr. Salezar. His gang is opposed by 2 Texas Rangers: Cal(Eddie Dew), and Trigger(Fuzzy Knight), as well as by Buck(Rod Cameron), brother of one of the gang, who became a renegade from the gang when he discovered most of the stolen money came from friends: the Salezars. As a result of a gun fight, pitting the brothers against the gang, Johnny was mortally wounded and Buck was taken prisoner. The 2 rangers find Johnny near death. He tells them that he made off with the money and hid it, making a map of where to find it, telling only Buck where the map was hidden. The Rangers then rescue Buck from the gang. Buck then rides to the Salezars, where he surprises Dolores in her bedroom. Now, we have met all the main characters. ....... I don't think the(crazy) location of the map should have been revealed until it is recovered, near the end........ I will leave the rest for you to discover..........I rate this B western, shot in B&W, as average.

Pretty good movie
alstarr17 July 2006
Please note that you have Eddie Dew and Fuzzy Knight listed as Marshals. They are in fact Texas Rangers in the movie. the movie was shown on the Westerns Channel today. The plot was slightly different and proved interesting. There were some interesting twists. The script was thoughtfully written. I never knew that Rod Cameron made "B" westerns. I saw him in the movies in the 50's and 60's. He played many different action leads. I had never heard of Eddie Dew. At first I thought that maybe it was another stage name for Eddie Dean but the first couple of close-ups convinced me otherwise. All in all I enjoyed this movie. Al
