The Fighting Stranger Synopsis
After being released from prison, "Australia Joe" attempts a bank robbery and escapes. Out west, his gang robs the town-hall and steals papers for some mysterious person "higher up." Joe learns the identity of this man and prevents his marriage to the daughter of a man he has framed. To the surprise of all, Joe discloses himself to be a Secret Service agent rather than a notorious bandit.
Into the Light Synopsis
A simple country girl, brutally mistreated by her stepfather, awakens first the sympathy, then the love, of The Boy. The Spider, who lusts after The Girl, makes a bargain with the stepfather and takes her to the city where, kept prisoner, she is soon broken in health and spirit. Cast out and near death, she is taken in by The Boy. Following the demise of The Spider, The Boy takes her to church, where he prays, and after many hours she is restored to health.
"The Fighting Stranger" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
