Buster Crabbe takes on a dual role, as Billy the Kid and his identical twin brother who leads a gang of gamblers terrorizing Sage Valley. Remember that Crabbe's Billy the Kid is actually a good guy, despite his past. Along with Fuzzy St. John, they help the local mayor and bank president capture the bad Buster. Some note must be made of Fuzzy St. John, who is just as important as Buster Crabbe to the series. Here Fuzzy is in Three Stooges mode, just watch the fight scenes in which Fuzzy uses his head as a battering ram and frequently lands upside down with his legs flailing above him. The sound effects use a thin knocking sound for punches, so the violence is impossible to take seriously. The final scene features Buster Crabbe in a fist fight with himself.
