Yikes. “Roy Rogers” gets assassinated. Why didn’t I know? Oh no, wait - it was the senior version! The junior version returns many years after to find his murderer “Tasker” (Frank M. Thomas) is holding the ranchers to ransom over the water supply and that his enforcer is none other than his own kid brother “Jerry” (Don Barry). Fortunately, “RR” also has the ever-reliable “Gabby” (“Gabby” Hayes) on his side as his incognito attempt to rally the other ranchers gathers an increasingly perilous momentum. As a kid, I was not a fan of “Roy Rogers” and that was because the crooning just doesn’t belong in a western (well not unless it was Dean Martin) but here, luckily, there is a good deal less of that and more of a story to unfold than you might expect, only with a few hiccups along the way and even the tiniest bit of romance threatening for “Gabby” with the redoubtable “Miss Minnie” (Fern Emmett) and her ever so frilly gowns. There’s more action here than usual too, and the gun totin’ livens up nicely towards the conclusion of quite a busy little hour of reconciliation and revenge. No, you might never recall watching it afterwards, but it passes the time amiably enough and with a bit more of Hayes to get our teeth into, this one is worth a gander.
