This murder/revenge western was the end of the line for the great Republic Pictures. John Carroll, the B-movie version of Clark Gable, leads this film that was actually pretty entertaining.
The plot, while fairly standard, does hold the viewers attention and the casting was very unique. Look for Bea Benaderet (later of Petticoat Junction fame ) as well as Joe Besser ---- the former Third Stooge ! As Republic Pictures run ended, so did the heyday of Carroll's career. He was very personable and watchable ...... but was never able to find the break out role that would have launched him to stardom.
A slightly above average western/murder mystery ......
