Three long-unseen western-themed B-pictures from Monogram Pictures have been compiled one one Blu-ray collection: MONOGRAM MATINEE VOL. 1. The films included represent the poverty-row's more popular outings from the year 1949. Country singer (and later Louisiana Governor) Jimmie Davis stars in a tale of bad guys vs. good guys aboard a riverboat in MISSISSIPPI RHYTHM, while cowboy Whip Wilson takes charge in the action-packed CRASHING THRU, while Western fan favorite Johnny Mack Brown is an ever-ready U.S. Marshal in WESTERN RENEGADES. Assembled as an homage to the Saturday matinees before the age of television, fans of these fondly remembered adventures can enjoy this triple feature, all newly remastered for this exciting Blu-ray presentation.
