In 1932, Kent Taylor and Gail Patrick were mere Paramount bit players. Within a year, both were playing leads in such programmers as Badmen of Nevada. The film is set in the years that the Nevada territory was "wide open", at the mercy of desperadoes everywhere. Taylor, backed by his irate fellow settlers, try to stem this lawlessness. Badmen of Nevada was another entry in Paramount's off-and-on Zane Grey series. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
