An action-packed slog

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Gary Busey and Adrienne Barbeau should hang their heads in shame that they participated in what in my opinion it a TOTAL Piece of TRASH and a TOTAL waste of my time.Netflix should be spanked for even offering this total turkey as a movie for anyone to watch.The lines in the script are AWFUL.The supposed "action" scenes are a VERY BAD JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is NOT entertainment. This is punishment!!!I am 64 years old and I have seen thousands of movies and hundreds of westerns.Why would anyone do the things the script has these characters doing? NEVER in the most remote fantasy would anyone have ever done what these characters are supposedly doing. Kung foot totally unrealistic. Even Chucky boy Norris did better and some of his movies were pure attempts to make money at the total expense the viewers.The martial "arts" fight scenes are so very bad that one does not know whether to laugh, cry or just turn this TOTALLY HORRIBLE movie OFF!The gunfire sounds like CHEAP cap guns. What were they thinking when they made this filth in 2004?Gary Busey and Adrienne Barbeau have never been more at their WORST! And I really LIKE BOTH of them !!! Busey's death scene is Ludicrous!I can NOT say ENOUGH BAD about this TOTAL FAILURE that provides ABSOLUTELY NO entertainment.

This review contains spoilers.I am a fan of Westerns, and I did enjoy this one, in spite of the problems mentioned in other reviews. Gary Busey and Jeff Fahey are good here, as usual, and I liked Jenya Lano as well, even if her role was lifted right out of 'The Quick and the Dead.'My main complaint involves the whole 'ghost' subplot, which was somewhat confusing...How DOES Savannah interact with the other characters if she's dead? And my own personal preference, if you must have the ghost angle at all, is to have Johnny really die at the end, so he and Savannah are both ghosts and can be together.Even better would have been to not kill Savannah in the opening, and simply have her and Johnny show up as live people to avenge those who'd been killed 20 years before,As for the Marshals sent for by the bartender...How incompetent were these guys? I found it hard to believe they could be slaughtered so easily.And one more thing...An earlier review mentioned that straight-razor cuts would bleed heavily--what about the clueless outlaw whose hand is cut off? If he even survived such an injury, how likely is it that he would then be able to cross the desert barefoot?Ah, well...I enjoyed the movie for what it was, a low-budget Western that tried to be different. Overall, I feel it succeeded.

first of all i stumbled across this movie on show-time about 5 in the morning when i couldn't sleep and nothing else was on. i like westerns and love martial arts movies so i thought id check it out.well there's nothing great about this movie in fact there's not much good about it. everything about it is average, the acting, the script, the directing, all in all its a average direct to video movie. the gun fights are OK nothing spectacular. the martial arts are probably the best thing in this movie but not nearly enough to make the movie any better.warning spoilers ahead some things i had a problem with, the hole ghost thing was a little weird. how is a ghost gonna interact with everyone, hold cards, push stuff around, drink a beer, and shoot people.some people are complaining about the clichés and the fact that a few scenes are taken from other movies. that doesn't bother me. there will always be clichés in movies. and one of the greatest directors from my generation takes bits and pieces from other movies all the time, and the director i speak of is none other than quentin tarintino.all in all if your up late and cant sleep and stumble across this go ahead and watch it if u like direct to video b movies and western / martial arts movies, but don't expect much.

Alright, the movie might have been poorly scripted... and directed... and acted... and, um, edited... not to mention poor sound production with regards to dialogue synching and Foley (when someone falls through a solid wood hitching post it does make a sound)... BUT it features Adrian Barbeau.Well, she alone might not make up for all of the problems this movie features. I believe it was a conscious decision to cast her so that when the movie bombed she might catch the attention of her fans and push the movie into cult status (She did make Swamp Thing).If you don't want read spoilers, don't go any further. Not that it matters much with this movie, but I like to be polite.First of all, straight razor slash cuts bleed... a lot.Secondly, if you want us to understand that a character dies, show that character die. I had no idea if the little girl in the beginning of the movie was dead or alive. Maybe Johnny should have visited her grave when he returned to town? Speaking of Johnny, when we see him in the first scene, he is a thirteen-year old boy hiding in a barn to avoid the bad guys. Years later, how are we supposed to know he was the boy hiding in the barn? Throw in a sequence where he dreams about the incident? Yes, it's cliché, but it would have helped.Speaking of clichés, STOP! At least they make note of the fact in the dialogue that "Everyone is talking in riddles."In a magical world where ghosts not only interact with other characters and take baths, apparently they also grow older. How is your audience supposed to know that this woman is the little girl from your youth? As a matter of fact, how did Johnny know? He didn't recognize her, it isn't possible.Maybe, if you had shown Johnny and Savannah exchange gifts (a necklace or something) then you could have used that item to identify them later. I realize this would have taken more time to develop, so drop the scene where the preacher is frightened by the bad guys in the middle of nowhere. The slaughter of the Marshals should be enough to convey their arrival.Speaking of the arrival of the Marshals, since when do they ride in the engine of the train? Well, we see the remains of a train later in the fight scene, so apparently it was wrecked years ago and just the locomotive is in operation? Having been to the studios where they made this movie I can answer that one, all they have is a locomotive.In conclusion, get the word out to Cult Movie fans, see this movie. It has potential to be the next great cult classic!
