The Texas Rangers: Spook Town

The Texas Rangers believe they've found a perfect place to guard a treasure when they hole up in a ghost town. A bandit who wants the locked chest hires three notorious drifters to eliminate the Rangers. Their first assault is held off by the quick reflexes and sharpshooting of Tex and his men, forcing the thieves to look for more devious methods. One by one the Rangers are waylaid by shadowy figures that strike and then disappear. Unfazed by their attackers, Tex and his posse hunt down the crooks to expose the true criminals. Spook Town is a classic example of the PRC western - low budget and high energy. The action breaks just long enough for radio star Jim Newill to deliver two rousing songs, keeping the pace at full gallop.
