Sherman Scott is credited as director of Billy the Kid's Gun Justice, but you can't fool us: Scott is none other than the incredibly prolific Sam Newfield. We'd like to tell you what the picture's all about, but not even our most reliable sources can offer us any info. Judging by the rest of PRC's "Billy the Kid" entries, we can safely assume that Billy (Bob Steele) is accused of a murder he didn't commit. We can also rest easy that Billy will bring the genuine killer to heel before the film's 57-minute running time has fully elapsed. One thing we know for sure: Billy the Kid's Gun Justice is the third in PRC's B-western series based very loosely on the exploits of William H. Bonney.
