Mystery Ranch


Mystery Ranch is a 1932 western film with mystery/horror elements. I watched this online, but not a trace of it remains. I can't even find a trailer. There's a 1934 film by the same name readily available, but that's nothing like the 1932 film. I kept delaying posting this, hoping it would reappear, but I've given up. It's well worth a watch if you can find it. I'm sorry I can't help with that.

TCM has information. 366 Weird Movies describes it as "a Gothic western, often looking more like an early thirties horror film than a western" and says, "Mystery Ranch (1932) is suspenseful to the nail-biting level, has a great action sequence, is aptly scored, and climaxes with a great end for the villain."

    1. It has been removed from all the internet. So strange. I wish I could find a trailer, at least. The mystery continues.... lol

  3. Too bad the film has been removed. I know they did the same at PBS when I was watching a series. Now it's behind PBS's pay wall. Maybe it will show up now that you have reviewed it. Stranger things have happened.

    1. Movies come and go, but this one's been gone so long I doubt it'll ever be back. I imagine someone put it up and the copyright holder had it taken down. But nobody really cares about this movie and so nobody but me will ever notice it was there or that it's now gone lol
