Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This poverty-row quickie stars Ray Walker, Guinn "Big Boy" Williams, and James Bush as troubleshooting telephone linemen Torchy, Slim and Eddie. When their supervisor is killed, the boys offer to adopt the dead man's "little" daughter Ann (Sally Blane), actually a curvaceous young lady for whom both men harbor romantic inclinations. Things get serious again when Eddie dies while stringing wire during severely inclement weather. This leaves Torchy and Slim to battle over Ann's affections-and neither one is much of a prize. With an unprepossessing cast and only fair production values, Crashin' Thru Danger could only hope to make back its cost, which wasn't much to begin with.
