Interesting facts
The Thundering Trail is a 1951 American Western film produced and directed by Ron Ormond and starring Lash LaRue and Al "Fuzzy" St. John. It was the ninth of LaRue's films for Ormond's Western Adventures Productions and the third to be released by Howco, a distribution company owned by Ormond and drive-in theater owners Joy N. Houck and J. Francis White. The screenplay was cowritten by Ormond's wife June Carr and associate producer Ira S. Webb. The film features a large amount of footage from previous Ormond/LaRue Westerns.

Sue Hussey won her role at the age of 15 after winning the Talladega County Turkey Festival pageant in Alabama, for which LaRue was one of the three judges. Hussey appeared in only one other film, The Vanishing Outpost, another 1951 Western starring LaRue.
