aka Mud Honey. Rope. Rope of Flesh. Rope of Love.Depression era Missouri and Calif (John Furlong) is trying to get to California. On his way he is decides to take a job at the Wade farm, despite being warned not to. He soon wishes he had heeded the warnings as he gets entangled in the domestic disputes of the family. Things get worse when a local preacher begins a smear campaign about Calif, and his attraction to the bosses sister, who is married to the local nogoodnick Sydney.
This early Meyer effort is a Southern Melodrama, packed full with bad men and women willing to make them feel better! This plays out with little of the Meyer trademarks, though he has packed out the female parts by his usual buxom beauties including Lorna Maitland as a deaf mute who likes men and isn't afraid to show it.
