Haunted Gold is a 1932 Pre-Production Code, American Western film directed by Mack V. Wright and starring John Wayne.[1] It is a remake of the 1928 film The Phantom City, starring Ken Maynard and his horse Tarzan .

Filmed in 1932, two years before the implementation of Hollywood's Production Code, the film contains several racial slurs involving the "Clarence" character who is black. He is called both a "Darkie" and "Sambo", by the Woods character and is referred to as the hombre with "the watermelon accent" by gang members. Wayne's character even calls him "boy" in one scene.[citation needed]
