Tornado Range

The Feds have just opened west Texas for homesteading, and the ranchers are prepared to fight them. So the Feds have sent Eddie Dean, his horse Copper, and Roscoe Ates (in that order on the credits) to make sure the minimum number of people get plugged in this pretty good B western. There's also some grudging help from Jennifer Holt, a rancher's daughter who wants as little bloodshed as possible.

It's pretty standard stuff, although editor Joseph Gluck forces the cutting pace down to less than two seconds per clip to add some real excitement to the big fight at the end. Eddie sings two songs, neither of which impressed me.
