Wolves of the Range

a review by CinemaSerf

A group of small ranchers face intimidation from "Harry Dorn" (Stanford Jolley) and his cohorts of henchmen as he seeks to drive them off their properties. "Dan Brady" (Ed Cassidy) is the local banker who, when he tries to help out, finds his bank under pressure when it runs out of cash! Bob Livingston ("Rocky") - aka "the Lone Rider" is despatched on a secret mission to get an extra $50,000 to stave off disaster and save the ranchers from their avaricious persecutor. "Dorn" discovers this plan and so sends his men to stop "Rocky", but he manages to hide the cash before he is accosted and left with amnesia - where has he left the loot? It's a simple enough story that really belongs to Al St. John - as his Gabby Hayes-esque sidekick "Fuzzy" who always seems to be on hand to rescue our frequently hapless hero and save the day. The ending is never in doubt, but it's still a fun action adventure with plenty of fisticuffs.
