Herrin der toten Stadt (1948)
James 'Stretch' Dawson und seine Bande überfallen eine Bank und müssen anschließend, verfolgt von der Armee, durch eine Salzwüste fliehen. Mit letzter Kraft erreichen sie eine verlassene Stadt, in der nur noch 'Mike' und ihr Großvater leben. Die Bande beschließt einige Tage zu verweilen, um sich selbst und ihren Pferden etwas Ruhe zu gönnen. Die Ganoven finden mit der Zeit heraus, dass Mike und ihr Großvater im Besitz von Gold sind und zwingen diese zu einem Abkommen: Der Großvater verrät den Ort des Goldes, dafür bleiben sie beide am Leben und dürfen die Hälfte des Goldes behalten. Dude und der Rest der Bande nimmt es mit dem Abkommen jedoch nicht so genau wie Stretch.
