    Buster Has To Stop Buster

    Al St. John is sworn in as sheriff because of his proven ability to not be around when the old sheriff and all the other deputies were killed. Meanwhile, Buster Crabbe's evil identical twin cousin -- all the evil identical brothers and sisters having been killed in earlier movies, I imagine --is rustling cattle and killing Evelyn Finley's father. So it's up to Al and Buster to stop Buster.

    Tired old plot aside, there are some bright moments in this PRC western, like St. John doing his bicycle act, and Crabbe showing some fondness for the old coot. It's certainly not very good, but there is enough here to make it a decent time-waster for fans of old B Westerns.
