| User ReviewAllan CDecent low budget western set in the post Civil War era following two families, each on opposite sides of the law and the war. The Confederate family is surviving as outlaws and accidentally kill a Union man's son, putting the two families on a collision course. The film doesn't look all that much better than an average episode of Gunsmoke, but the film does get interesting when the boy's killer finds himself under that care of the union family who don't know that he's the killer. You also have the great Ben Johnson in a supporting role as one of the Confederate family members, who is a personal favorite actor of mine, so that helps the bland story too |
