Reading silent films: “The Tyrant of Red Gulch” 1928 starring Tom Tyler

“Tyrant of Red Gulch” is the third installment of the Tom Tyler lost silent film reconstruction series. Unlike the previous two projects, “When the Law Rides” (1928) and “Red Hot Hoofs” (1926), this silent film is a benchmark in the history of the Aventuras de Tom Tyler website. Details are included in the Introduction to the translation. Please read the Terms of Use before reading the actual story.

Upcoming special project for “Tyrant of Red Gulch”

In our third installment of the lost Tom Tyler silent film reconstruction series, "Tyrant of Red Gulch" (1928) with Frankie Darro, Serge Temoff and Josephine Borio has been selected. As with the previous two silent film reconstructions, “When the Law Rides” (1928) and “Red Hot Hoofs” (1926), the basis for this reconstruction will be the film's derivative published by Biblioteca Films. Existing copies of stills, promotional materials, and movie cards will be included in this project.

Once "Tyrant of Red Gulch" is translated, it will be posted here on the Aventuras de Tom Tyler Blog plus social media pages.
