The Vigilante
1947
- 15 Chapters
The Vigilante (1947) was
the 33rd serial released by Columbia Pictures. It was based on the
comic book cowboy, The Vigilante, who first appeared in Action
Comics, and was starred by Ralph Byrd, well known for his central
role in the Dick Tracy serials. It was his last ever serial
appearance.
Plot
The Vigilante, a masked government
agent, is assigned to investigate the case of the "100 Tears of
Blood", a cursed string of rare blood red pearls sought by a
gang led by the unknown X-1 that may have been smuggled into the
country.
Greg Sanders (Saunders in the comics),
in his civilian guise as an actor, is filming a western on George
Pierce's ranch. Pierce is a wealthy rancher and nightclub owner.
When the Prince Hamil arrives to the ranch, he gives a horse each to
Saunders, Pierce, Captain Reilly, Tex Collier and Betty Winslow. But
an outlaw gang soon attacks, attempting to steal all five horses. It
turns out that each horse has twenty of the pearls hidden in their
shoes (five in each) in secret compartments. Edging closer, Sanders
learns that a prince's servant stole the diamonds from his master
and smuggled them in on the horses with the intention of passing
them on to X-1.
