Description: Though James Cruze (I COVER THE WATERFRONT, IF I HAD A MILLION) is remembered as one of the top directors of the silent era, the strong performances and the gritty nature of this prison drama distinguish it from the rest of its post-sound B-movie ilk. Young Nurse Judy (Marian Marsh) has accepted a job to help battle a typhoid outbreak in a maximum-security prison. The institution is located in flood country, and a particularly bad flood has submerged much of the prison and spread disease, overwhelming the institution's elderly doctor. Dale (Henry Wilcoxon, DRAGNET), an inmate with a mysterious history as a doctor, reluctantly agrees to help the operation when the old man collapses from exhaustion, and as the criminal with a heart of gold works alongside our tireless heroine, love blossoms. But Dales's newfound position in the prison just might unwittingly aid the plans of the prison kingpin, Jackpot, who is determined to break out of jail at any cost.

All copies current in circulation of this film appear to be sourced from Alpha's horrid quality release. High Resolution Pictures seen above are all from the actual film print being offered, we don't ever use stock photos. If you have any questions at all feel free to ask and thanks for looking!
