While bringing in supplies to start a new store, dude Steve Langtry (Charles Starrett) is set upon and has his wagons hijacked. Upon arrival in town, Steve, slightly injured in the fracas, goes to see the town doctor (Fred F. Sears), who offers his services as a go-between to take a ransom to the bandits for Steve’s goods. Steve agrees, but the Durango Kid takes a hand and foils the payoff, setting the stage for further confrontations as Steve, in reality a government agent, aims to identify the crooks, and in particular their ringleader. A good entry in the series.
Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is worth a look for B western fans and recommended for fans of the Durango Kid.
Movie 134 for 2021.
