the ambush scene is brilliantly orchestrated by the Comanche... Masters of the ambush!

the wagon-wheel torture scene is intense! Comanche are also masters of terrorism.

Not to pick nits, but did anyone notice that the Indians in this film were APACHES? Not Comanches.

The Commanches ran the Apaches out of Texas & back to the 'classic' 'Apacheria' regions: Arizona, New Mexico & Northern Mexico. So given the Apaches were no slouches with in came to warfare, torture, & terror, the Commanches must have really been 'off the hook'.

Yes, and Atilla the Hun was also leader of a badass bunch, too. But again, the Indians in THIS film are Apaches.
