- Cowboy Larry O'Day and his sidekick Lucky Smith happen upon a distraught Barbara Hartwell, who is about to be arrested for the murder of her uncle. With Barbara behind bars, Larry is determined to find the real killer and soon finds himself in the middle of a mystery involving crazed German entomologists and a smuggling ring bringing Chinese "picture girls" across the Mexican border for sale to wealthy Chinese bachelors.
- Border Phantom (1937)<br/><br/>** (out of 4)<br/><br/>Barbara (Harley Wood) is taking care of her horse when she hears a gunshot. It turns out her uncle was murdered and soon afterwards she's arrested for the crime. Luckyly for her, Larry O'Day (Bob Steele) and his partner Lucky Smith (Don Barclay) are around and try to clear her name.<br/><br/>This low-budget Western is certainly one of the strangest that you're going to see. It turns out that there's a major subplot dealing with mail order brides so I'm sure parents had some explaining to do to their kids after this one was over! If you're looking for a well- made movie then you're obviously not going to find it here. As we know, the main goal of a "C" Western like this was to just get something up on the screen for cheap.<br/><br/>The biggest problem with this movie is the fact that the screenwriter threw all sorts of comedy into the mix and it's just not that funny. The worst part is the dumb sheriff who is rather obnoxious in how blindly stupid he is. Steele and Barclay give the type of performances you'd expect from them. The supporting cast are all pretty bad performance wise. The one thing going good for BORDER PHANTOM is some camera-work during night time scenes where it seems it was influenced by the German films of the previous decade.
- Entomologist Frank Ball is bughunting near the Mexican border. He tells his niece, Harley Wood, to take a message in to sheriff Horace Murphy. As Miss Wood goes to her horse, she hears and shot and rushes back to find her uncle dead. Soon she finds herself in jail under suspicion of murder. Can wandering cowboy Bob Steele and comic sidekick Don Barclay untangle the mystery?<br/><br/>Bob Steele's westerns were a lot slicker now that they were being financed and released by Republic Pictures, and there's little doubt that director S. Roy Luby, whose other job was editor knew how to order the set-ups for under-rated cameraman Jack Greenhaigh efficiently. The problem is with the script by Fred Myton, who had been writing silents and B movies since 1916. Steele was an action star, whose athletic and acrobatic movements had been well served by direction under his father, Robert Bradbury. In this one, he has to spend most of his time talking. He doesn't even get into a fistfight with anyone until 51 minutes into the movie, and then all the action shots are chopped up by cross-cutting.<br/><br/>Myton's script also uses standard tropes: dumb cops, mysterious Orientals who dress in traditional Chinese garb in the middle of the American desert... with changes of costumes the whole movie could have been shifted to an urban setting with little loss. While the actors give good performances, and that's good, that's not what's supposed to distinguish westerns; good westerns, even B westerns, require open vistas, horses, action and more of the culture that makes the West different from downtown than a comic sidekick wearing chaps.
