Review by pixrox1

. . . far exceeds the original as a contribution to Humanity, this really isn't saying very much. Buzz Buzzard is such an obvious choice to take on the role of Ringo that it merits few bonus points for a casting decision that would be obvious to even a Turner Old Movies host. Wally is far funnier than Andy Di Vine in the part of Stage Driver Buck, and Woody is a hoot to boot as he takes on multiple guises in the forms of Dallas, Lucy and even Mrs. Gate-Wood. By trimming a few redundant, superfluous, unnecessary, boring, gratuitous, dead-end, banal and hack bits from the fluffy padding permeating the original STAGECOACH's marathon 96-minute slog, STAGE HOAX is able to pack a far more effective punch or emotional wallop into its mercifully less than seven minutes. It just goes to show how red-blooded Americans can run circles around homesick Irish pretenders.
