Storyline:
“A Lassie movie. After years of prospecting, Jonathan finally strikes gold. He returns to town only to discover that his partner has since died and left Tommy fatherless. He decides to leave Shep (played by Lassie) with Tommy to cheer him up. Meanwhile, Jonathan’s new partner, Lin, isn’t interested in sharing the gold, and lures Jonathan to his death. Lassie immediately deduces what’s happened, so Lin poisons Lassie. Lassie barely pulls through and pursues Lin to a climactic confrontation where, due to an off-screen accident with some liquid nitrogen, Lin’s gun jams.” Written by Leo L. Schwab on IMDb.com

Reviews:
“Who wouldn’t love a flick in which Lassie, compelled by burning hatred, tracks down the man who killed his beloved owner? It’s not quite as bleak as all that, (if it had taken place in a city, it would have been the sole entry in the “Lassie-noir” genre) but it IS a startlingly dark work, for a 50’s family-movie audience. As for the acting, it’s pretty much what you would expect…but during those final scenes, where Lassie faces the killer…aren’t you glad it’s not YOU facing that implacable, growling, fang-faced beast?” Written by PaulCurt on IMDb.com
