Product Description

Khyber Patrol (1954)

Director:

Seymour Friedman

Writers:

Jack DeWitt, Richard Schayer (story)

Stars:

Richard Egan, Dawn Addams, Raymond Burr

This Kiplingesque adventure yarn stars Richard Egan as a captain in the British lancers. Together with his regiment, Egan is assigned to put down an Arab rebellion in Afghanistan, stirred up by rival tribal leadersRaymond Burr and Donald Randolph. When not defending the British Empire from collapsing, Egan vies with fellow officer Patric Knowles for the hand of lovely Dawn Addams. The story comes to a head when Egan pretends to join the rebels, the better to defeat them from within. The rampant jingoism of Khyber Patrol may be a bit hard to swallow; it's best to assess the film on its considerable merits as an outdoor actioner.

Another "Canadian" Saves the Day!

Posted by Michael B. on Feb 1st 2016

An amusing action film. Look, it's "Ironside" as the traitorous Afghan officer! I want to see the story of the dancing girls spying for the Brits ... they seem to be the most effective agents of the Empire in this film. I appreciated the "move the guns to wagons, so they won't be stolen" ... nice way of avoiding the need to present 1890s Indian railway equipment in 1950s California.
