LIGHTNING GUNS 1950 (MILL CREEK)

This time Durango has to stop a dangerous feud.

Two men, Luke Atkins (William Bailey) and Captain Dan Saunders (Edgar Dearing) are feuding over the building of a dam. Atkins wants to build it to help the people living in the valley, but Saunders is strongly opposed to it.

When a banker that was going to lend the money to build the dam is murdered, Saunders is blamed and arrested. The Durango Kid comes to the aid of the valley and tries to clear Saunders of the murder and find out what is really going on.

For a short running "B" western, this film has a lot of plot twists and turns. Charles Starrett does his usual great job as Steve/Durango and the rest of the cast really helps the film.

I know I have reviewed a lot of these films here lately, and there are a few more to come, but if you like these kinds of westerns I highly recommend the set from Mill Creek. I have read that the audience for "B" westerns is disappearing, and that could be true, but if you have never seen one, check it out.
