Don't let the 1.5 hour run time fool you, this one runs every bit of 4 hours. We are told at the beginning that Yellow Shirt and his woman were among the two survivors of an army massacre of his tribe, and so he and his remaining braves(sic) set out for revenge. Though the number of braves at his command is uncertain and perhaps inflated in army reports, so too are exaggerated the number of calvery personnel in the field reported by the Apache, but these false numbers shake out and equalize with the passage of time, and ultimately there is but Yellow Shirt and a single army scout, a mountain…

Great acting - wrong ending -
★ · AKA "The worst western ever made" · Aitchondo · 2009-01-13
Might well be the worst movie ever. I may be bias, but as an Indian, I saw not one in the movie. I got the general idea about where it was leading, but how it was getting there confused me greatly. Bear fight was funny, but not funny enough to recommend the movie. Diane Taylor is really nice, but not Indian. Really, really bad movie. Can't even squeeze out two stars for effort.
