Tornado Range (1948)
Directed by Ray Taylor
Overview
Tornado Range is one of five Eddie Dean westerns originally produced by PRC in 1947 but released the following year by Eagle-Lion. Cast as a troubleshooter for the U.S. Land Office, Dean is assigned to settle a deadly range war. Sure enough, the warring homesteaders and cattlemen are being whipped into a frenzy by a third party, who hopes to “divide and conquer,” claiming the land for himself. Surprisingly, all-purpose PRC villain George Cheseboro isn’t the culprit in this one; instead, he’s cast as the father of heroine Jennifer Holt. Roscoe Ates is once more on hand for some questionable comedy relief.
