In yet another movie in which the lead plays two people who look exactly like each other, Eddie Dean, Texas Ranger, is sent to deal with Eddie Dean, outlaw.
Eddie Dean's last movie in his series for PRC -- it was also Jennifer Holt's last movie, and the last produced by PRC -- is a cheap affair, a remake of his 1946 movie THE DRIFTIN' KID, with the script given a light rewrite by western specialist Ed Earl Repp. Repp came from Minnesota, where he was a member of the Minneapolis Fictioneers with Carl Jacobi and Robert Bloch. He died in 1979 at the age of 77.
Ray Taylor's fading powers as a director are very much in evidence when it comes to stunt work. The long distance shots of Miss Holt trying to break a horse show the stunt man -- clearly a different man -- wearing a different shirt than the lady in close-up.
