Phantom Rancher

A western the way they did it in the early 1930s. This one however is dated 1940 and this standard doesn't cut it anymore. Rough and lame production, with poor acting to boot. Among the last films with Ken Maynard as a solo star, and with good reason. He looked well passed it here. And how ridiculous they couldn't guess he was behind the mask... as he did nothing to change his very recognizable voice. Oh well, at least the pace was okay, even if the rest of this wasn't.
