Loser's End amused me greatly, not because of it's story (which is pretty lame) but it's awesome ineptness. Let's see, you have a cowboy that can't fight a lick (watch those arms) and he can't ride a horse. He's stuck in a town with actors with laughable Mexican accents, horses that disappear and appear from nowhere just when the cowboy needs it, magically appearing cowboy hats when the actor lost it in an earlier scenes, etc etc. But the real icing on the cake is the two separate fights in the SAME bar, but for some odd reason, both fights fail to recognize one another, even when one of them stops! (It's obviously that the other fight was done at a completely different time). Crazy to watch for the mistakes, but not that much interesting plotwise.

Dreadful western
bkoganbing20 March 2017
Jack Perrin who had a long career well over 400 big and small screen credits was apparently a man who loved the business. He certainly stuck to it with any kind of sized role he could get.
But as a cowboy hero Perrin was definitely a bust. He did not ride tall in the saddle, did not look comfortable in western gear. He also had a most unfunny sidekick in Frank Rice.
In the aptly titled Loser's End is a bust all around in about every way possible even for a poverty row B western. We never even find out exactly what Perrin's interest in villain William Gould is, is Perrin the law, is it personal etc.
But someone thought this was worthy of a remake because Bob Steele did just that under another title. I guess if at first you don't succeed.........
