Wanderer of the Wasteland Synopsis
Adam Larey becomes a fugitive from justice when he escapes after being blamed for a crime he did not commit. He wanders into the desert wastelands and joins an outlaw gang who prey on gold prospectors. Years later, he meets his wife and her gold-prospecting father, who have come to seek their fortune; as they don't know the danger of the treacherous desert wastes, poisoned-water holes, and outlaw bands of marauders who roam the desert in search of the gold found by others, he helps them, and eventually manages to clear his name of the false charges against him.
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.
"Wanderer of the Wasteland" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
