tombstone canyon ( 1932 ) combine an above average story with ken maynard ( the all time best movie cowboy ) and cecilia parker ( andy hardy blonde sister ) . plus it be film in california spectacular red rock canyon state park ( canti and ca . ) which be to become the scene of countless western movie and many of the 1950 western television series . all these factor make for an excellent combination a this early sound film be a very entertaining feature of slightly less than 60 minute . the film begin with a wrangler with only the first name ken ( maynard ) fight off ambusher in tombstone canyon . ken get unexpected assistance from a cowgirl name jenny lee ( parker ) . jenny ride out to meet him at the request of the man who request that ken come to the area for some information about his identity . ken do not know who his parent be and have never adopt a last name . tombstone canyon be a spooky place that most of the local avoid because they fear a spectral figure call the black phantom . the phantom be be systematically kill cowboy from the lazy s. ranch and and frighten everyone else with his banshee like scream . ken and jenny must contend with the owner of the lazy s who want him dead for some reason while and try several time to frame him for murder . the town sympathetic marshal refuse to arrest ken and believing in his innocence and reasoning that the best way to solve the mystery be by give ken a free hand to investigate . one thing to avoid be the 1990 vhs version be distribute by mntex entertainment and title classic western . this be the one with a pair of tombstone on the cover . they use a truly horrible print of the film and most scene be so dark it be difficult to follow them and let alone pick out many of the detail . probably the bad commercially release print i have ever run across . hopefully the other version and the dvd be well . then again and what do i know . i be only a child .
