The Golden Snare Synopsis
Sgt. Philip Raine of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police is sent to the mountains to capture killer Bram Johnson. Raine encounters a dying Frenchman--whom he believes to be Johnson--who gives him a tiny baby and a rabbit snare made of golden hair. Overtaken by a blizzard and set upon by a pack of wolf dogs, he is escorted by Celie, a beautiful blonde, to the stockade where she lives with Johnson. She shields Raine from Johnson, but she and Raine are later captured by "Black" Dawson, a jealous rival. At the critical moment, Bram arrives and saves them. Before dying, he explains the mystery of Celie, who was found as a baby in an explorer's icebound ship.
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 Golden Snare" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
