Witch's Lure Synopsis
Peggy Martin and her father need mortgage money from the oil well leased to a shady promoter, Brill, who receives a bribe from the foreclosing landlord to suspend the working, and also, by faking the well, which he knows is barren, scoops a profit on the shares. Peggy has a madcap girl friend, Tex, who goes to "vamp" Brill in order to save the Martins. Tex is saved from Brill's clutches by Billy, a young man whom Peggy knows by correspondence only. The landlord fires the well out of revenge, and Peggy is saved from its summit by a rope from an airplane containing Billy and a friend. The land is bought by a company, and the lovers come together.
The Forbidden Lover Synopsis
Yankee sea captain lands on the coast during the old Spanish days to trade with the ranch owners. He meets a girl who is betrothed to a man she loathes. After a series of adventures and narrow escapes he shows up the unscrupulous ranch owner and wins the girl.
"Witch's Lure" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Forbidden Lover" offers its own unique cult appeal.
