synopsis
Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back was the second and last entry in Columbia's abortive attempt to revive the "Bulldog Drummond" B-series of the 1930s. As in Bulldog Drummond at Bay, Ron Randell stars as the dashing adventurer. The plot this time is the old saw about a phony heiress laying claim to a vast estate. Yes, that's Gloria Henry, future Dennis the Menace mom, as the heroine. This 1947 quickie is not a remake of the far superior 1934 Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back, which starred Ronald Colman.
