Description
Cast: Stephen McNally, Coleen Gray, Arthur Shields
In the last film produced by the celebrated Val Lewton (Cat People, I Walked with a Zombie), a gambler and gunman reluctantly returns to the desert mining town he’s just been expelled from to warn the citizens of an impending attack by Mescalero warriors. Excitingly directed by Fregonese, the final siege sequence inside a dance hall turned fortress sets the stage for films like Rio Bravo, Night of the Living Dead, & Assault on Precinct 13.
