The Lawless Eighties [1957] [DVD]Buster Crabbe (actor) John Smith (actor) Marilyn Sars (actor)
Format: all-region dvd (worldwide) Runtime: 1h9m Quality: Excellent 4:3 b/w
This is a solid B Western starring a surprisingly good performance from ex-Flash Gordon, ex-Tarzan, ex-Billy the Kid, Buster Crabbe, who doesn't just walk through the role of a gunfighter (like he did in most of the Billy the Kid B westerns he made in the 40's).In a fast-moving 70 minutes, you get a gunfighter, a preacher, and corrupt white guys trying to start an Indian war for profit, and it all works pretty well, thanks to a tight (if occasionally corny) script and solid if workmanlike direction from B Western veteran director Joseph Kane. - imdb |
