Description by OLDIES.com:
Rescue Squad is a fun B-picture that is like a pulp story brought to life, with twists and turns that were the specialty of director Spencer Gordon Bennett. Known as the "King of Serial Directors", he directed more serials than any other director, including both Superman (1948) and Atom Man vs. Superman (1950), The Tiger Woman (1944), Batman and Robin (1949), The Adventures of Sir Galahad (1949) and Captain Video (1951). Dashing leading man Ralph Forbes was an English actor who immigrated to America in the mid-1920s. He quickly made a name for himself in his new home with roles in Beau Geste (1926), Lilies of the Field (1930) and Smilin' Through (1932). He was also Sir Hugo Baskerville in the first of the Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes pictures, The Hound of the Baskervilles (1939). Ever-reliable character actor Leon Ames plays the film's heavy using his birth name Leon Waycoff. His most famous early role was Edgar Allan Poe's detective Pierre Dupin in Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932). As Leon Ames, he would appear in Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo (1944), Lady in the Lake (1947) and the film noir classic The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946). He also played Wilbur's neighbor on the popular TV series Mister Ed (1963-1965).
