Trails of the Golden West Synopsis
A wagon train of "Forty-Niners" heading for the California gold fields includes a girl, her father and an old black servant, who have hidden their family jewels and life savings in their wagon. One of the men in the train plots with some Indians to attack the caravan and steal the family's wealth. In order to isolate their wagon, the villain has one of his men pose as a small pox victim so that the wagon train will leave them behind. After they fight with the Indians and the band of outlaws, the girl and her family are saved by the leader of the wagon train.
A Scream in the Night Synopsis
A professor aims to prove the Darwinian theory correct with a wild beast brought up in the jungles. The creature, named Darwa, is taken to civilization where society accepts her as a woman and a young aristocrat falls in love with her. As the creature is not a woman, but rather the result of experimentation and only half human, the professor declares the project a success. But will it hold up to the final test when Darwa is pitted against a wild ape?
"Trails of the Golden West" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Scream in the Night" offers its own unique cult appeal.
