Hurricane at Pilgrim Hill (1950)73 minDramaRating 41/100

Sam "Bigmouth" Smedley travels to Pilgrim Hill, Massachusets, to "help" his unhappy daughter Janet. Sam soon learns that the cause is Janet's lawyer husband Tom's troublesome biggest client, Jonathan Smith, who owns and controls most of Pilgrim Hill. The controlling Smith even refuses to allow his daughter, Sally, to marry her poor, but kind, sweetheart Steve. Sam kidnaps Smith and brings him to a small deserted island off the coast. He then performs an old indian rain dance to create a storm to make Smith disappear. The dance works too well, a hurricane springs up, and Smith disappears in the storm. The local sheriff charges Sam with his murder. But is Smith really dead? A goofy, fun farce with a rare starring role for character actor Clem Bevans.
