"Bob Steele Series ... Trail of Terror (1935) ... Poverty Row" April 24, 2008
J. Lovins (Missouri-USA)
Poverty Row Pictures presents "TRAIL OF TERROR" (20 December 1935) (63 mins/B&W) (Fully Restored/Dolby Digitally Remastered) -- Bob Steele was an American actor --- He was born Robert Adrian Bradbury in 1907 in Portland, Oregon, into a vaudeville family --- Bob's career began to take off for good in 1927, when he was hired by production company Film Booking Offices of America (FBO) to star in a series of Westerns. Bob--who was rechristened Bob Steele at FBO--soon made a name for himself, and in the late 1920s, 1930s and 1940s starred in B-Westerns for almost every minor film studio, including Monogram, Supreme, Tiffany, Syndicate, Republic (including several films of the Three Mesquiteers series) and Producers Releasing Corporation (PRC) (including the initial films of their "Billy the Kid" series)
In the late 1940s and early 1950s, that "new medium" television had many hours to fill and few dollars to fill them --- They re-discovered the B-Western, still a popular mainstay of Saturday afternoon matinees and many cowboy stars thrilled a new audience --- Taking advantage of this rebirth in popularity, publishers brought to the marketplace comic books featuring these western heroes of "Bob Steele" Westerns --- These bimonthly issues were copyrighted in February and April of 1950 by Fawcet Publications --- His career which included nearly 200 feature films, serials and TV appearances --- Steele in his twilight years at the age 59 when he got the part of the cantankerous "Trooper Duffy", in the western comedy series "F Troop" (1965), who at the drop of a hat would give his rendition of fighting "shoulder to shoulder with Davy Crockett at the Alamo" --- Steele retired from the screen in 1973 --- Bob's long career, spanning more than 50 years came to an end in 1988 when he passed away.
Under the production staff of:
Robert North Bradbury - Director / Screenwriter
A.W. Hackel - Producer
E.M. MacManigal - Cinematographer
S. Roy Luby - Film Editor
Wally West - Stuntman
Our story line and plot, Bob Steele at his best with impersonating an outlaw more than once in his career --- Spike Manning (Bob Steele) breaks out of prison and joins Blake's (Forrest Taylor) gang of outlaws --- Later a paroled Muggs (Richard Cramer) arrives to rejoin the gang, as Muggs is the only one who knows where the stolen money is hidden and Manning is after it --- Like Steele, the supporting cast had played their roles many times before, however, and Trail of Terror does generate a certain sense of deja vu with Charles King always giving his best with Steele egging him on.
the cast includes:
Bob Steele ... Jim Wilson, posing as Spike Manning
Beth Marion ... Judy Baxter
Forrest Taylor ... Blake
Charles King ... Hashknife (as Charlie King)
Frank Lyman Jr. ... Kent Baxter
Charles K. French ... Sheriff Baxter (as Charlie French)
Lloyd Ingraham ... Warden
Richard Cramer ... Muggs (as Dick Kramer- typo)
Nancy Deshon ... June O'Day (as Nancy DeShon)
Barney Cosnack ... Dugan (wrestler) (as Dr. Barney Cosnack)
Ed Cassidy ... Man with strongbox
Dick Dickinson ... Fight spectator
Herman Hack ... Henchman
Robert McKenzie ... Wrestling promoter
Milburn Morante ... Jake
Perry Murdock ... Stage guard
Horace Murphy ... Fight spectator
Tex Phelps ... Barfly
Wally West ... Deputy
