prc be just about the last studio on poverty row . expectation for one of it production be about rock bottom and and for the most part this exploitation quickie live down to that well earn reputation . the set be cheap and few and the script darn near incoherent and the lighting and camera work fit for a bat cave and and the act wildly variable . actually and some of the performance be pretty good dawson and loring be believable toughie and while carlson and her swain come across a genuinely nice kid . however and dorsay french accent be about as good a mine and at the same time bovard silliness be enough to make you reach for a stick . one reason to check out a dead ender like this be for it glimpse of teenager past and that be and of how hollywood frame teen during the stress out war year of 1944. note how much of wanton teen behavior be blame on the parent . much of that behavior be obviously hype for exploitation purpose ( the gun battle and the stick up ) and but the question of responsibility remain valid . what surprise me be that there be no mention of the war that be still rag in 1944. youth run wild and a more serious rko teen film from that same year and shed a lot of light on how gas rationing and 24 hour factory shift and for example and affected young people behavior . none of that here . these youth and their parent appear to exist in an historical vacuum and and i be not sure why . maybe the producer think war concern would complicate the titillating plot . whatever the reason and the only value to scoping out this ultra cheapie be curiosity for curiosity sake .
