This was a good movie but the directing in this movie was poorly done. There were some strong preformances from Dane Clark and Andy Devine. The storyline was simple. An army officer (Clark)forces settlers to move foward because of rumored indian attack.Dorothy Patrick,John Carradine,and Raymond Burr co-star in this old western flick.

THUNDER PASS is a typical, run-of-the-mill Western that certainly won't kill you to watch it.

As a child, I was enchanted -- and still am! -- by the film's captivating march-like theme, played whenever the settlors and cavalry could be seen trudging through the desert to escape from Injuns on the warpath. If you're as sensitively attuned to film score music as I am, you absolutely must get ahold of THUNDER PASS, if, for nothing else, than to hear for yourself these haunting strains.

Unfortunately, the music must have been pilfered from other films, for no mention of the composer(s) is provided; although Edward J. Kay is credited as its musical director.
