When Gangland Strikes

Slim Pickens is the star of this film; that is when you know your film is in trouble. Slim is funny, and he even uses his own name. His Mayberry personality would have fit in perfectly with Barney Fife and the other characters of Mayberry, and he brings some comic relief to a really bad script that is pretty funny itself; but unintentionally. After a silly beginning, a judge tries to shield his adopted daughter from her mother's unfortunate past. And his actions lead to his removal from office.

But when his stepdaughter is accused of killing the man responsible for his removal from office, the judge springs into action as Perry Mason. Aside from being a very unlikely series of events, the script is weak in several other areas. It eventually collapses under its own weight and becomes a pure filler for a double feature at your local drive-in.
