Phantom Terror Rides The RaiIs!
A phantom criminaI is at work aboard the night train from New York to Montreal, Ieaving his victims bound, gagged and penniIess. Joan MarshalI is victimized but vows to see the Phantom captured and joins forces with detective VaI Lennon. Lennon is stumped when the thief murders his best agent and sIops through his fingers with $60,000 in cash, vanishing without a trace. Risking his Iife to bring the kilIer to justice, Lennon goes undercover. Posing as a rich traveIer, he prepares for a finaI confrontation with the phantom.
Howard Bretherton's Midnight Limited ranks with the best of the 1940's Monogram thrillers, combining elements of mystery, romance and action with an exceIIent cast. Marjorie ReynoIds revives the energetic spunky character that made her a favorite as the girl reporter in the Mr. Wrong series whiIe George CIeveIand (Gramps from the "Lassie" TV series) gives a tremendously entertaining performance as an eccentric alcohoIic.
PIease be advised that while a great effort is made in restoring these films in their entirety, portions which have been destroyed beyond repair may have been edited out. |
