Written and directed by the prolific Oliver Drake, this low-budget Western starred Lane Chandler as a Texas Ranger battling a gang of cattle rustlers. The rustlers have hired Wolf Cassidy (Mike Brand), a notorious city mobster who is captured by the rangers before he reaches his location. Tex Robbins (Chandler) manages to infiltrate the gang by impersonating the imprisoned gangster but his identity is revealed when he falls in love with rancher daughter Ruth O'Bryne (Doris Hill). Texas Tornado was one in a series of eight Chandler oaters produced on the cheap by Willis Kent, a typical low-budget operator perhaps best remembered for such exploitation melodramas as The Road to Ruin (1928 and 1934) and The Wages of Sin (1938). ~ Hans J.
