Review :
Reusing old westerns
I found it interesting that this film was not original, but used stock footage from previous westerns: "Gunning For Vengeance" and "Landrush." I always suspected that a lot of the shooting and chasing in westerns appeared the same, but I never realized that they actually used the same film. Roger Corman would be proud.
I also found it interesting in this particular western the use of the protection racket by the outlaws. Agasin, something I had never seen previously. Using stampeding horses or cows to intimidate and collect protection money. Cowboy Mafia? The cowboys here, including the Durtango Kid, really need to take some shooting lessons. Bullets were flying all over the place and no one got shot./ The only time anyone did get shot was at point blank range from 3-4 feet. Interesting.
