"The King of B-Westerns & Serials...VCI Entertainment ~ Boothill Brigade (1937)".......2006-09-14

VCI Entertainment present "Johnny Mack Brown Double Feature Vol. 8" (Crooked Trail (1936)/Boot Hill Brigade (1937) (Dolby digitally remastered)...relive those thrilling days from the early '30s and '40s when Johnny Mack Brown took us down the dusty trails with some of the best B-Westerns ever to grace the Saturday Matinee Screen...just remember double the thrills, mystery and suspense...hitting the bull's eye with excitement...don't miss any of the Johnny Mack Brown features loaded with action that will leave you wanting more of his B-Western adventures.

First up of this double feature VCI Entertainment and Supremel Pictures present "CROOKED TRAIL" (1936) (58 mins/B&W) ... Under Roy S. Luby (Director), A.W. Hackel - Producer), George Plympton (Screenwriter) ... the cast include Johnny Mack Brown (Jim Blake), Lucile Browne (Helen Carter), John Merton (Harve Tarlton), Charles King (Lanning), Ted Adams (Estaban Salano), John Van Pelt (Tex), Ed Cassidy (Grimby), Horace Murphy (Carter), Dick Curtis (Kirk/a Miner ), earl Dwire (Miner), Artie Ortego (Card Player), Hal Price (miner) . . . . . long running Johnny Mack Brown series turned out in the early '40s...the story line has two of the cast Johnny Mack Brown and John Merton finding a goldmine and becoming partners...Merton's background is a shakey one of the outlaws life...Brown wants to give Merton every break he can and change his evil ways...Lucile Browne has a plan to open Johnny Macks eyes, will he see Merton for what he is...can it be that Lucile will run off with Merton, thus stopping a bullet meant for our hero Brown...there's an exciting fistfight between Johnny Mack and Charles King that is well worth the price of a ticket...will the final showdown live up to all we expect from the Johnny Mack Brown Supreme films series...the screenplay by George Plympton is over the top and gives the B-Western fans all the excitement and drama we long for ... a particular favorite of mine . . . . . special footnote, actor Charles King was among the top five "Best of the Badmen" (according to a new book by Boyd Magers, Bob Nareau and Bobby Copeland)...King was a big man, but as agile as a cat during his fight scenes with Johnny Mack Brown, Buster Crabbe, Tex Ritter, The Rough Riders and Bob Steele...King appeared in 400 films and 350 were in sound including many cliffhangers...he was the heavy we loved to hate.........meanwhile back to another great Johnny Mack B-Western provided by Supreme Pictures during their heyday of the early '30s.

The second feature is from Republic Pictures "BOOT HILL BRIGADE" (1937) (56 min/B&W) ... Under Sam Newfield (Director), A.W. Hackel (Producer), Harry F. Olmstead (Short Story Author), George Plympton (Screenwriter), Bert Longenecker (Cinematographer), Roy S.
