Wild Bill vs. the rebels !

Wild Bill Elliott was one of the best of the B-western stars. This 1953 film, one of his last, is solid entertainment with an interesting plot. Bill Elliott comes hunting for the killers of his Dad, finding that Southern sympathizers known as "Copperheads" are the likely culprits.

While this later film in Elliott's career is not his best, it does offer the same well-paced entertainment that he was famous for. This film came along during the final days of the B-westerns and suffers from so-so casting and lower production values. Even so, it is better than 75% of the contemporary films of the genre. Enjoy, but check out his earlier films as well !

Rebel city

Elliott plays Frank Graham, a gambler who returns home to Kansas when he gets word from an old friend (Bill Walker) that his father has been killed.

It turns out that there's a gang of Southern sympathizers ("Copperheads") in the area running guns, passing counterfeit bills, and generally wreaking havoc, including murdering Frank's father. Frank takes a job as a teamster working for Jane Dudley (Lord) while he untangles the mystery.

Bill Elliott is suitably stoic as the man seeking his father killer. He had been stabbed in the back, and Elliott almost gets the same treatment during his investigation- other two men get killed via a knife. It's fairly neat b-western which is more like a detective drama. There's some tense moments, and it doesn't fail to keep your attention.
