directed by Albert Herman
featuring Charles Starrett, Noel Madison, Virginia Cherrill, Charles Delaney, Jack Mulhall

One of several poverty-row films which vanished from sight during the 1935-36 movie season, Beacon Productions did its best to stay afloat as long as possible with such potboilers as What Price Crime? Future cowboy hero Charles Starrett is cast as G-Man Allan Grey, hot on the trail of a gang of firearms smugglers. Going undercover, Grey poses as ...

The Whispering Shadow (1933)

Big Boy Rides Again (1935) more movies like this

directed by Albert Herman
featuring Guinn "Big Boy" Williams, Constance Bergen, Charles French, Lafe [Lafayette] McKee, Victor Potel

More of a whodunit than a straight Western, this Guinn "Big Boy" Williams vehicle from low-budget Beacon Pictures at least attempted something a bit different. Having just revised his will under the watchful eyes of lawyer Hartecker (William Gould), rancher John Duncan (Charles K. French turns down a proposal from neighbor Tap Smiley (Lafe McKee) ...

Utah Trail

Utah Trail (1938) more movies like this

directed by Albert Herman
featuring Tex Ritter, Horace Murphy, Adele Pearce [Pamela Blake], Karl Hackett

Tex Ritter's final music Western for floundering company Grand National, The Utah Trail was yet another low-budget patch-up job with plenty of stock footage from earlier releases. Horace Murphy and Snub Pollard (who is credited as "Peewee Pollard" in the film's credits) once again lent dubious comedy relief, while Charles King took it on the chin ...

Blazing Justice (1936)

directed by Albert Herman

The penultimate Bill Cody Western in a series of nine produced by Gower Gulch company Spectrum Pictures, Blazing Justice featured its weatherbeaten star as a lawman mistaken for an outlaw by pretty Gertrude Messinger. Naturally, the real culprit is the very man Cody was trailing in the first place. Whew the girl's father (Budd Buster) is found ...

directed by Albert Herman
featuring Tex Ritter, Horace Murphy, Harriet Bennet, Hobart Bosworth

Filmed after the star and his producer already had signed a new deal with rival company Monogram, this Grand National Tex Ritter Western slashed the usual parsimonious budget even further by recycling the entire final reel of Ritter's previous Sing, Cowboy, Sing.

featuring Tex Ritter, Nelson McDowell, Muriel Evans, Nolan Willis, Steve Clark

Tex Ritter, Monogram' low-budget answer to Republic's Gene Autry, got himself a new sidekick in rangy Nelson McDowell in the otherwise dull Roll, Wagons, Roll. Executive producer Edward F. Finney only allowed two songs -- Roll Wagon Wheels, by Dorcas Cochran and Charles Rosoff, and Oh, Suzannah, by Stephen Foster -- and the Western included enough ...

The Black Coin [Serial] (1936)

directed by Albert Herman

The first of three inexpensive serials produced by Louis Weiss for Poverty Row company Stage and Screen Productions, The Black Coin centered around 12 black coins, who together form a treasure map. The plot was as old as the Hollywood Hills, and didn't quite deliver the same punch by 1936, despite the addition of the popular G-men to the ...

Miss V from Moscow (1942) more movies like this

directed by Albert Herman
featuring Lola Lane, Noel Madison, Howard Banks, Paul Weigel

Miss V From Moscow was singled out by B-film historian Don Miller as "one of the worst movies ever made by any standards, certainly the worst movie of its year." Seen today, the film seems to be simply another mediocre wartime meller from the cramped studios of PRC. Lola Lane plays Soviet secret agent Vera Marova, who bears a striking resemblance ...

A Yank in Libya (1942) more movies like this

directed by Albert Herman
featuring H.B. Warner, Walter Woolf King, Joan Woodbury, Parkyakarkus [Harry Einstein], Duncan Renaldo

PRC's A Yank in Libya is distinguished by some of the oldest, grainiest stock footage ever seen in a mid-1940s film. Once past this aesthetic obstacle, however, the film isn't too bad. Walter Woolf King heads the cast as American war correspondent Mike Malone, on assignment in a papier-mache facsimile of Libya. Malone helps to squash a Nazi scheme ...
