The Lash of Power

Directed by Harry Solter

With Kenneth Harlan, Carmel Myers, Helen Wright, Charles Hill Mailes and T.D. Crittenden

John Rand, having lived in a small town his entire life, dreams of possessing wealth and power in New York. Napoleon Bonaparte has long been his ideal, and one day he feels a message from the departed general urging him to take up the fight for world supremacy. He goes to the city ready to begin the battle, and there, aided by his Napoleonic visions, John amasses a great fortune, ruthlessly destroying everyone who presents an obstacle to his lust for power.
