Brief Synopsis of DVD: Hell Fire Austin stars amiable cowboy hero Ken Maynard, as well has his horse, Tarzan the Wonder Horse (originally just named Tarzan, until a lawsuit with Tarzan creator Edgar Rice Burroughs). Maynard and Tarzan become embroiled in a championship horseracing feud between rival ranchers. Since Maynard was a trick rider before becoming a movie cowboy, Hell Fire Austin is the perfect platform for his ample abilities.

Hell Fire Austin  revels in the true glory of the Old West: six shooters, stallions, and underhanded plots.

Disc VI of VI: His Brother's Ghost (1945)

 - Rare & historic film transferred to DVD format and preserved for posterity

 - DVD menus and search capabilities

 - 51 minutes Running Time

Brief Synopsis of DVD: His Brother's Ghost is an uproarious romp through the Wild West which is haunted in this film! Olympic gold medalist Buster Crabbe, known for his smashing portrayals of Tarzan and Flash Gordon, is given top billing in this cowboy adventure, but the real star is Al “Fuzzy” St. John. St. John was usually Crabbe’s sidekick, but in this film he’s killed early on and returns as a vengeful ghost! St. John clearly loves the role and steals the show scene after haunting scene. But of course there’s still plenty of screen time for the gun slinging Crabbe to blast away bad guys, which is exactly what he does. Funny, fast paced, and explosive, His Brother's Ghost is a superb vintage Western adventure.

Film #1: His Brother’s Ghost

Production Date: 1945

Running Time:  51 minutes

Brief Description:  Director: Sam Newfield. Starring: Buster Crabbe, Al St. John, Charles King, Karl Hackett, Arch Hall Sr., Roy Brent, Bud Osborne, John L. Cason, Frank McCarroll, George Morrell
