Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This wild and wacky western spoof pits that famous "cowboy hero from Brooklyn" Red Hot Ryder against the carrot-snatching Masked Marauder, who looks an awful lot like Bugs Bunny. Though Red Hot Ryder tries hard, he's no match for the rascally rabbit, who uses a powerful magnet to rob our hero of his guns, his bullets and the safety-pin holding up his underwear--and this happens twice in the same picture! Finally, Red Hot Ryder pursues the fleeing rabbit right into the Grand Canyon...all the way down.
