Director:

Writer:
Arthur E. Orloff
Stars:
Allan Lane, Eddy Waller, Roy Barcroft
Code of the Silver Rage is more of the same from Republic western star Allan "Rocky" Lane. This time, Rocky plays U.S. cavalry intelligence officer Lt. Rocky Lane, assigned to protect the President of the United States from harm when the Chief Executive visits the treacherous Arizona Territory. Going undercover, our hero infiltrates a criminal gang headed by Hulon Champion (Roy Barcroft), who hopes to assassinate the President and set up his own totalitarian regime in the West. The plot may have been a bit too much for Allan Lane's kiddie fans to digest. Fortunately, there was plenty of gunplay and fisticuffs to keep the youngsters happy.
