Production

Karlson did not like his first film as director for Monogram, calling it "probably the worst picture ever made." However, before it was released "they had given me another story that I flipped over. Oh, I knew this was surefire. So I got into production as fast as I could with the second picture and the second picture was a tremendous hit."
