Cowboy Larry O'Day and his sidekick Lucky Smith happen upon a distraught Barbara Hartwell, who is about to be arrested for the murder of her uncle. With Barbara behind bars, Larry is determined to find the real killer and soon finds himself in the middle of a mystery involving crazed German entomologists and a smuggling ring bringing Chinese "picture girls" across the Mexican border for sale to wealthy Chinese bachelors.
Border Phantom (1937)
** (out of 4)
Barbara (Harley Wood) is taking care of her horse when she hears a gunshot. It turns out her uncle was murdered and soon afterwards she's arrested for the crime. Luckyly for her, Larry O'Day (Bob Steele) and his partner Lucky Smith (Don Barclay) are around and try to clear her name.
This low-budget Western is certainly one of the strangest that you're going to see. It turns out that there's a major subplot dealing with mail order brides so I'm sure parents had some explaining to do to their kids after this one was over! If you're looking for a well- made movie then you're obviously not going to find it here. As we know, the main goal of a "C" Western like this was to just get something up on the screen for cheap.
The biggest problem with this movie is the fact that the screenwriter threw all sorts of comedy into the mix and it's just not that funny. The worst part is the dumb sheriff who is rather obnoxious in how blindly stupid he is. Steele and Barclay give the type of performances you'd expect from them. The supporting cast are all pretty bad performance wise. The one thing going good for BORDER PHANTOM is some camera-work during night time scenes where it seems it was influenced by the German films of the previous decade.
Border Phantom stars Bob Steele who when he was a B movie Cowboy hero, I always got the impression he was trying to be a James Cagney out west. Steele was a short man like Cagney and always played it with a chip on his shoulder.
Republic did not do right by it Mr. Steele at least in this one. I guess that after Gene Autry and Roy Rogers the other cowboy heroes got the leavings. This was definitely a story need not to have been filmed as Bob Steele puts an end to of all things, a racket involving arranged Chinese marriages. Who'd a thunk it.
Bob Steele was certainly capable of better things, just see him in The Big Sleep. And he was always great as a villain like in The Big Sleep or South of St. Louis with Joel McCrea.
He should have concentrated there instead of making these forgettable oaters.
