The Rawhide Terror

Plot (or what there is of it)-- Moving West the parents of two boys are murdered by predatory white men pretending to be Indians. Years later, a grotesque killer called the Rawhide Terror picks off men from a town nearby to where the two boys were orphaned. So what's going on.

If you like a lot of aimless riding around greater LA, then you may like this feeble oater. The main problem is that it's an edited-down version of a half-done chapter serial. Too bad someone didn't turn on the lights since the characters come and go in no particular order, while cheap chase scenes go on and on. Then too, characters change names for no apparent reason, so if you can figure out the interplay, you belong at MIT. Now I don't blame the producers for getting what money they could out of the abortion, but I really pity anyone who paid to see it. The results do manage a creepy moment or two with the Terror's gruesome face, but except for horror movies' favorite location-- Bronson Canyon Cave-- the oater's a real bomb.
