I liked this movie!

I agree this film had many redeeming elements, even though it was critiqued as a 1 star movie on my network. Unfortunately, I saw only the last 45 minuets, so my opinion will necessarily be incomplete.

But from what I did see, the cinematography was really quite good, with its low angles and interesting techniques in some scenes, like when it framed the shadow of the Davis character instead of showing the character himself. And the sound track was very different too from your typical western. The use of guitar and even tympani drums to add tension was rather compelling. It created an off beat mood throughout.

The acting by most of the minor players was serviceable and the lead roles were well handled by Jim Davis, Arleen Whelan and Lee Van Cleef.

I thought the fight scene at the climax of the movie between Davis' character and Van Cleef's was well staged and very realistic.

I plan on trying to catch this one again.
