Riders of the Dusk (1949)
Directed by Lambert Hillyer
Overview
Riders of the Dusk is another of Monogram’s formula Whip Wilson westerns. Since the studio couldn’t build an entire film around Wilson’s bullwhip prowess, a plot was called for. This time around, it’s the one about a U.S. marshal who searches high and low for a mysterious masked desperado. The mystery angle is minimal, since seasoned movie fans will be able to determine the mystery person’s identity within 15 minutes. As always, Andy Clyde is a tower of comic strength as Whip Wilson’s grizzled old sidekick.
Length 57 minutes
