A deranged killer escapes into the Canadian woods. He tries to fool the locals by pretending he is a well known mystery writer, but the local Mountie starts to get suspicious.
Noticing the resemblance between himself and noted author Steven Norris, wanted gangster Dan Geary kidnaps Norris and assumes his identity. His charade is successful for a while but when his new stenographer reads some of his latest writing to Mountie McGregor, McGregor become suspicious.
Kermit Maynard doesn&#39;t usually get praise for his acting nor for the quality of his movies, but &quot;Phantom Patrol&quot; proves he has been terribly under-rated.<br/><br/>For example, I had known nothing of his athleticism, but pay attention during the barrack-room horse-play. Amazing!<br/><br/>I expected nothing much when I started watching &quot;Phantom Patrol&quot; on YouTube, but was enthralled from the very beginning, partly by the credits and partly by the music. Unfortunately, even here at IMDb, there is no credit for the music.<br/><br/>The director, Charles Hutchison, is someone I had seen in some silent serials where he was &quot;Lightning Hutch.&quot; Until I saw the credits here, I never knew he had become a director and, judging only by &quot;Phantom Patrol,&quot; a very good director.<br/><br/>This is, obviously, a low-budget movie, but there is such a good and literate script, and the players are so above average, the lack of money doesn&#39;t matter.<br/><br/>For example, Harry Worth plays two parts, two very different characters although they do, of course, look alike. And he is two very different characters, in a great job of acting. (He reminds a bit of Basil Rathbone, both in his looks and his debonair attitude.)<br/><br/>Kermit Maynard had a brief fling as a star but was soon relegated to &quot;with&quot; parts in bigger-budget movies, but here he is a very pleasant and believable Mountie. <br/><br/>Script writer Joseph O&#39;Donnell, who here is called by the same name as one of the two characters played by Harry Worth, Stephen Norris, has created dialog that is at times amusing, with some nice interplay between and among the other characters.<br/><br/>There is an especially good line when the girl tells the Mountie he&#39;s dirty and he replies he got that way dodging bullets. Her response is classic, very, very clever.<br/><br/>The girl, by the way, is played by the lovely Joan Barclay, who sometimes is reminiscent of Myrna Loy, but feistier.<br/><br/>The inimitable Paul Fix is the chief villain&#39;s associate and dog&#39;s-body and is, as usual, believable and even likable, despite being a bad guy.<br/><br/>The rest of the cast are just so much icing on this delicious cake, and the only complaint I can make is of the quality of the print at YouTube. It&#39;s broken and choppy and those flaws can be distracting.<br/><br/>But it&#39;s worth putting up with that for the joy of the movie. I highly recommend &quot;Phantom Patrol&quot; for many reasons, and hope you like it too.
An outfit called Conn Pictures got Kermit Maynard to star in this Northwestern which is a poverty row Rose Marie. Earlier in 1936 the MacDonald/Eddy classic was released by MGM and singing Mounties got their vogue. Not that Kermit Maynard sung a lot and if he wasn&#39;t dubbed it wasn&#39;t with the caliber of Nelson Eddy. But we did learn that Mounties do have pillow fights in the barracks.<br/><br/>Harry Worth plays two roles, a public enemy from New York who is on the lam and sees in a New York newspaper that his lookalike who is a mystery writer is going to stay in his cabin in the Canadian woods. So he beats it up to Canada from New York and kidnaps him and takes his place with a false beard for disguise. Why he doesn&#39;t kill him God only knows among other questions.<br/><br/>Paul Fix who also took on the lam to Canada meets up with an old jail house buddy Julian Rivero who is presumably a Meti though he says he was born in New York, not too many of those around. They also need a place for a hideout and a partnership is born. For the rest of the film let&#39;s say the partnership doesn&#39;t work out.<br/><br/>This film is bad, but it&#39;s also kind of goofy in its own way. On that level it might be enjoyed.
