Galloping Vengeance Synopsis
Texas Ranger Tom Hardy is ordered to find Big Wolf, an important Native American leader who has been abducted by outlaw Duke Granby. Tom's assistant, Little Wolf, is wounded and taken to the Reeves ranch, where the ranger meets and falls in love with Marion Reeves. Later, Marion reveals her concern for her brother, Jack, who is involved with the Granby gang. When Tom discovers Jack in a saloon with the criminals, a fight ensues leaving one man dead, and the blame is falsely placed on Jack. He runs to Marion for help, with Tom in pursuit. Marion holds Tom at gunpoint, enabling her brother to escape. Jack takes refuge in Granby's den, unaware that Little Wolf has been following him. The boy takes Tom to the hideout, where the ranger battles Granby. One of the outlaws blows up a dam, causing a flood. After Tom pulls Granby from the water, the outlaw exonerates Jack with his dying breath. The ranger then saves Marion from the flood, permanently winning her love.
A Sister to Salome Synopsis
When famous opera singer Elinore Duane undergoes an operation on her throat, she has a series of ether-induced visions. In one, she is transported to ancient Rome where she appears as a much-admired woman in love with Paul, a young heretic, and at odds with Lutor, the high priest. To save her love, she poisons Lutor with her ring. After several other visions which involve variations on this love triangle, Elinore awakens to discover that Lutor is actually her doctor, Sascha Jaccard, and that Paul is the son of a friend who has come to visit the recovering prima donna.
"Galloping Vengeance" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
