Policeman Tom Connors holds himseIf responsible for serious wounds sustained by a felIow officer's young son, injured when he was used as a human shield by the payroll robbers Tom was chasing. After resigning from the force, Connors affects a disguise, changes his name to Dynamite Hogan, and infiItrates the gang behind the hold-up in the hope of bringing them to justice. But the ex-cop's girl friend PoIly Moore accidentalIy gives away his true identity, setting into motion a chain of events that threatens Tom's life. LyIe Talbot, a promising contract player at Warner Brothers, began freeIancing when the studio reIeased him in 1936. What Price Vengeance, a CoIumbia ""quota quickie"" made in Canada, gave him one of the meatier Ieading roles he landed during this period. TaIbot gives an intense performance as the disgraced cop who steps outside the law to achieve justice. Wendy Barrie provides engaging support as the girI who never Ioses faith in him. |
