A Dirty Western

After a rather inventive opening sketch sequence, three convicts escape prison where they venture into a lone farmhouse praying upon a mother and her three daughters, before taking the later and running off all while a posse is on their trail. This hardcore porn western surprisingly has better acting, production value, and camera work then anything Al Adamson was doing at the time.

Thats where I'll end the compliments as the sex scenes on the other hand are mostly very rapey as all the women here are trying there damn hardest to look like they are hating what's happening to them. Until the very end where the daughters decide that screwing there captures to death to slow them down is the better option. It's all very uncomfortable and something that could only have been made in the 1970s. Hell Rob Black tried to do this in the early 2000s and was rewarded one year in prison.

"A Dirty Western" tells the story of three outlaws who kidnap and rape three young girls-the daughters of sexually defiled Barbara Bourbon.The film ends out in a violent shootout.The western setting is excellent and the first hardcore sex scene is surprisingly beautiful.All the other sex scenes are generally rough with nasty rape,underwater blow-jobs,forced lesbian activity and verbal abuse.The production values are very high for a film of this type with solid cinematography and great soundtrack.Still "A Dirty Western" is worth checking out for fans of bizarre porno/western hybrids.A guilty pleasure of mine I suppose.7 horny outlaws out of 10.

Nate (Richard O'Neal) goes off on a cattle drive, not before having sex with his wife,Sarah (Barbara Bourbon), of course. After 3 escaped convicts rape her, steal her three nubile daughters and then flee, leaving her strung up by her hands, she of course wants revenge. So when a rag-tag posse chasing the convicts rescue her, she insists on traveling with them. This is a curious film, as a porno/western hybrid, it's the first of it's kind that I've seen. Some may be put off by the highly exploitative showing of rape and incest. But I found myself actually drawn into and interested in what would happen next. The film is a further example of how porn films now shot on video, just don't seem to cut it (barring, of course, the way above average output of Directors Micheal Zen, Brad Armstrong, and few others) My Porn Grade: B-

Unlike other early adult movies such as DEEP THROAT and BEHIND THE GREEN DOOR, this fine combination of explicit sex and shoot 'em up thrills gets little respect even from genre fans. This is largely due to the brutal nature of the film's numerous rape sequences, commendably NOT of the 'they may protest at first' variety. The story's well detailed in the other comment you'll find here, so I won't go into that.

Most of the performers here made very few films (save for Levi Richards who made tons) and even beautiful blonde Barbara Bourbon, who turns in some effective acting as well as the proud, resilient farmer's wife fighting to protect her daughters from 'a fate worse than death', only made a handful of X-rated appearances, most memorably of course in Radley Metzger's timeless PRIVATE AFTERNOONS OF PAMELA MANN. Director "David Fleetwood" is actually sixties schlock producer Joe Robertson (THE CRAWLING HAND, THE SLIME PEOPLE, THE AGENT FOR H.A.R.M.), so the flick's inconspicuous professionalism in just about every aspect of production as well as narrative drive should come as no surprise. He went on to carve a niche for himself as 'female' (for the face value crowd) porn director "Adele Robbins" with movies like SWEET ALICE and INNOCENT SEDUCTION.

You may think that this early rape 'n' revenge movie stands diametrically opposed to his later couples friendly numbers. Anyone taking the effort to sit down and watch the film in its entirety will come to realize however that the female characters (Bourbon's in particular) are well drawn, not whining victims at all, perfectly capable of righting the wrongs inflicted upon them. So give this classic its due and allow it to take its rightful place in the pantheon alongside its more renowned genre brethren.

I've never seen a western porno..I'm sure of that,especially when this was made in the 70's during it's golden chic era.I pretty much thought A Dirty Western was going to be about a town with full on sex,how wrong was I.Sarah and her man,Nate talk about their 18-year old daughters upcoming marriage some ranch dude will leave.Before They say goodbye they have good bye sex.

Once he's gone,the three escape convicts from the animated opening titles spot the ranch run over to see for food and clothes.They see Sarah's three daughters happily playing and naked.The main horny hairy convict catches Sarah and rapes her in a shack.From watching the rape it wasn't too rough like Water Power or Forced entry,but rather tame for a different porn genre.the three convicts hang Sarah up to her hands on a rope and take the daughters hostage.

A Dirty western has some decent acting only from Barbara Bourbon who plays Sarah,I've never seen her before until now,the rest of the cast are OK.Pretty much A Dirty Western was kind of predictable for me,but in all fairness it had some good cinematography.So if you're curious to see something else from the 70's golden era watch this or just wanna see a hairy dude rape a chick watch it.
