The success of 1947's Badman's Territory prompted RKO Radio to assemble another "outlaw rally," Return of the Badmen.

Led by the surly Sundance Kid (Robert Ryan), the rogue's gallery includes the Younger Brothers (Steve Brodie, Richard Powers, Robert Bray), the Daltons (Lex Barker, Walter Reed, Michael Harvey) and Billy the Kid (Dean White).
