Red Sundown (1956)
8/10
Worth for the evil character
10 July 2022
I will forever remind this western for the Grant Williams character, remember him also in another Jack Arnold's film- TARANTULA. So, here, he plays a gunman, a killer, but not the the stereotype one, as for instance Leo Gordon usually is. No, I love the way his character is introduced in the story. It is for me unique, so subtle. I won't describe it, not to spoil you the pleasure. And it doesn't happen at the beginning of the story. This is a damn good Universal western, a B picture, but well done, fast, tight, with no length and some inventiveness. But you can prefer NO NAME ON THE BULLET. Here, the scheme is not new, a big rancher, a ruthless cattle baron, wants to get rid of poor squatters. The usual stuff, as we saw in thousands of westerns.
