20 Mule Team
It is 1892 in Death Valley and the yields from the Borax ore are getting so small that refining it is a losing proposition. The only thing that will save the company is a new deposit of high grade Borax, and Skinner Bill Bragg has a pouch of it that he got from a dead prospector he buried on the road. Stag Roper knows the value of the strike could be worth millions, but he needs Bragg to find the prospector's claim so they can record it and become rich partners. While Roper has no intention of cutting Bragg in on the millions, he also has his eye on young Jean Johnson. Josie Johnson, Jean's mother, sees Roper as the scalawag he is, and that means trouble in Furnace Flat.

Samarang
Director
A pseudo-documentary, “Samarang” tells the story of lowly Ahmang (Captain A.V. Cockle) and his socially superior love, Sai-Yu (Theresa Seth). Both live in the village of Samarang in the Indian Ocean. Because Sai-Yu is the daughter of a chief and Ahmang is but a poor fisherman, he needs to increase his wealth before asking for her hand. Thus he accepts the perilous offer of the wily Chang-Fu, who seeks pearl divers. Ahmang must brave the treacherous waters of the Forbidden Lagoon of Sakai, home to bloodthirsty cannibals, killer sharks, and a monstrous grasping octopus. Sai-Yu and Ahmang’s younger brother Ko-Hai come along for kicks, too. Ahmang finds his pearl, but he and Sai-Yu are stranded on the island, where they befriend a local orangutan. When they return to the boat, a shark kills Ko-Hai, and Ahmang must get revenge.

Versión española de "The Big House", anterior a la implantación del doblaje: se rodaba una película en inglés con actores angloparlantes y otra en español con actores hispanoparlantes. El argumento, copiado de "The Big House", es: Kent Marlowe, bajo la influencia del alcohol, atropella y mata accidentalmente a dos personas. Recibe cargos criminales y termina en una prisión cumpliendo 10 años al lado de criminales de diverso pasado; Butch Smith es un avezado criminal, con varias reincidencias, y es quien manda en el bloque de celdas. John Morgan (un individuo agradable que comparte la celda con Kent) es un falsificador que aparentemente se ha regenerado y desea rehacer su vida. Pero no es lo que otros desean para Morgan. Kent es forzado a plantar una navaja entre las pertenencias de John y éste pierde la posibilidad de salir de prisión bajo palabra. Desesperado, John huye de prisión.
