Product Description

Product Description

A shotgun-wielding bounty hunter carves a bloody legend through the lawless New Mexico Territories in Spencer G. Bennet`s classic Western saga of revenge and retribution. Eastern tenderfoot Willie Duggan (Dan Duryea) arrives in the frontier town of Silver Creek and immediately finds himself a long way from home. Here there is no law. The whisky is expensive but life is cheap and any justice has to be bought with a six gun. The idealistic Duggan decides to become a bounty hunter. Teaming up with an old sea captain (Fuzzy Knight), he confronts the worst killers in the Territories and learns his lesson the hard way. Now he knows the only good outlaw is a dead outlaw and decides to wipe them all out, armed only with his faith in the Lord and the sawn-off shotgun strapped to his leg.

Format: DVD
The Bounty Killer is directed by Spencer Gordon Bennet and written by Ruth Alexander and Leo Gordon. It stars Dan Duryea, Rod Cameron, Audrey Dalton, Richard Arlen, Buster Crabbe, Fuzzy Knight and Johnny Mack Brown. Music is by Ronald Stein and cinematography by Frederick E. West.

Willie Duggans (Duryea) arrives in the Wild West and quickly becomes exposed to its violence. Finding that big money can be made by bringing in bad guys, he takes up arms and plans to make enough money to set him up for a future with Carole Ridgeway (Dalton), a beautiful saloon singer. But the job isn't easy, physically, emotionally and mentally.

It's a film that asks some forgiveness from Western fans, you are asked to accept Duryea being too old for the role, some iffy production issues, coincidences and some giant leaps of faith. Yet if you can do that and just roll with its high energy willingness to keep the Western traditional in the mid 60s? Then this is better than a time waster.

Ultimately it's a message movie about the cycle of violence and how said violence can corrupt the most amiable of minds. The screenplay deftly brings in to the equation the roles of normal outsiders who don't mind violence as long as it is for their own ends, something which brings the best sequence in the film to the fore and lets Duryea once again show his class. Backing the superb Duryea is a roll call of Western movie veterans, all of which - with the leading man - make for a reassuring presence at our Oater dinner table. Neatly photographed out of the Corriganville and Glenmoor ranches in California, this may be a "B Western" trying to keep the traditional Western afloat in the mid 60s, but it's honourable in intent and entertains the Western faithful royally. 7/10

There is no doubt that Dan Duryea is much too old for the lead role and that the film is a bit heavy handed at times, but it is also, as has rightly been pointed out, an affectionate and respectful homage to those old poverty row sagebrush sagas of yore. The veteran director Spencer Gordon Bennet directed many of those old cowboy heroes like Bill Elliott, Buck Jones, Colonel Tim McCoy and Tex Ritter to name a few and was well placed to bring together a few old stars for one last hurrah. Bennet was a useful source of information for Jon Tuska when he wrote his epic paean to the B western "The Filming of the West". Bennet obtained the substantial services of Buster Crabbe, Johnny Mack Brown, Bob Steele, Rod Cameron, Richard Arlen and even managed to coax the screens very first cowboy star Gilbert M "Broncho Billy" Anderson out of retirement for one last film. Anderson went way back to the dawn of the western appearing in "The Great Train Robbery" (1903). Some cast!

The film itself is very atmospheric and exceeded my expectations. It concerns a man who falls into bounty hunting by accident and highlights the perils of hunting human beings for money. Interestingly it explores not only the morals of the hunter but also those of the people that put up the bounties. You have to ignore how quickly Duryea becomes proficient at his trade and concentrate on the films many strong points. Duryea's 'wind wagon' dreaming partner is not exactly your average sidekick and provides a central theme to the film. The films sombre but beautiful bar room music creates a tangible atmosphere of something lost. Maybe the thrill of those old serial westerns? I also loved the memorable scenes with the loves struck piano player, again highlighting the sense of loss.

Format: DVD
Acquired in the mid-sixties by Grand National Pictures who released this " U " certificate film with various assorted British B-pictures they currently held for distribution. Shot in 'Scope, but sadly the only official release DVD is in 4:3. Made back-to-back with " Requiem for a Gunfighter " starring Rod Cameron and Stephen McNally, released by Antony Balch, these were the final two credits from veteran director Spencer Gordon Bennet. Seen at the rundown Coliseum in Stoke Newington. These films are much in the same vein as the A.C.Lyles produced westerns from Paramount during the sixties, sporting a cast of old-timers in featured and cameo roles. " Requiem " is the better film, sadly unavailable on DVD, but this one has Mr. Duryea who never failed to please. Here he is a mild-mannered gent who gets drawn into a world of violence, eventually becoming a gunfighter. Fleeting support from Rod Cameron. Audrey Dalton attempts a half-hearted stab at a bar-room song, but she looks so enticing that we can easily overlook her shortcomings. Fifties-style entertainment, a little out of its time, but thoroughly entertaining, and in stark contrast to the wave
of X-rated European westerns, then enjoying considerable screen time in cinemas throughout the country.

Dan Duryea could carry a film even when not in the lead role. A decent underated movie this turns out to be with Duryea in the main part. I enjoyed it.
