    Good, fast action, more complex Western than it seems

    B Western by Republic Pictures directed by to me unknown R G Springsteen, with sound performance from lead Allan Lane, a typically interesting supporting part by Eddy Waller as Nugget, and the show stealer, the suave and deceitful villain Jim Crail, played with considerable charm by Stephen Chase. In fact, Chase's mendacity and depth of character make this 59' B pic worth watching, other pluses notwithstanding.

    Crisp script by Coates Webster, standard cinematography, great chase sequences on stagecoach and horse. Definitely worth watching!
