    How did this travesty make it on to DVD?

    This is the worst film that I have ever seen. The script, acting, photography, sound, sets and direction are all appalling.The DVD cover shows a train being held up, when does this happen? The previous reviewer seems to have liked the film, I can only think that he was related to the director or on strong medication. Firstly the photography,was it filmed on Super 8 with a wind up camera? The frames do not flow but are jerky and the lighting quality varies between shots. The sound is tinny and distant. The Sheriff is the only person in the film who can act,the baddie shows a glimmer of talent and the rest are pathetic, although the dialogue and direction don't give them much of a chance.I can only think this film was made by students having a bit of fun, but how did it make it on to DVD.

    Surprisingly Good Latter Day B-Western

    Small town sheriff Michael Gregory jails really nasty killer John Castellanos, but has to deal with the outlaw's murderous brothers and his own town's indifference to the impending showdown.

    An entertaining little High Noon/Rio Bravo wannabe, this has a decent, old-fashioned script reminiscent of the westerns of the 1950's. I personally could have done without the subplot involving the town's whore-mongering mayor though!

    There's a few technical flaws involving seemingly poor equipment and/or a bad tape-to-film transfer, that lead to some choppy movements and a few badly lit interiors. Still, it's well directed with good camera placement and excellent performances by Gregory and especially Castellanos.

    It's also pretty interesting to see Blazing Saddles' Burton Gilliam (you'd recognize him if you saw him) as a brain damaged old Confederate soldier, doing what appears to be an impression of Slim Pickens!

    This is definitely worth checking out. I'd like to see what writer/director Chuck Walker could do with a few dollars behind him.

    Old style western with very good dramatic build

    If your like it old style 50's-60's this could be a keeper. The drama has a slow build from beginning to end with John Castellanos giving a cleverly deceptive performance. Michael Gregory does it "Gunsmoke" style. The predictable plot has enough surprises to keep the interest going with a good showing from the mostly unknown but excellent supporting cast. This low budget film gives very good entertainment for the money. The characters are developed to the extent that I had a good sense of what to expect from each, but boy! was I surprised. From the directing to the acting to the cinematography this one is worth a few watches from the western aficionados. Definitely will see this again.

    not suitable even for starving bottom-feeders

    You thought "Waterworld" and "Battlefield Earth" were bad? You ain't seen nothing' yet, honey. Quite possibly one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. Bad acting, bad script, bad dialog, cornball plot ripped from various westerns (One-Eyed Jacks, High Noon, ad nauseum), bad lighting, bad cinematography all combine to create a movie that is quite literally UN-watchable. I didn't even make it half way through. I was starting to think maybe it was some sort of joke and was waiting for the punchline, but I paused it and logged on here and found that no, it's a REAL attempt at making a movie. And that's what it is: an attempt. A very FAILED attempt at that. Even the pair of village idiots can't manage to be funny.

    I'll go back to watching the paint dry and put this in the box for St. Vincent de Paul. No... no.... I'll put it on Craigslist in the "free" section. It would be some majorly bad juju for me if I caused another person to pay money for this piece of trash.

    I only clicked "1" on the "vote" because there's no option for "ZERO".
