Just another western

Gunfight at Comanche Creek (1963)

Directed by Frank McDonald this film stars Audie Murphy, Ben Cooper, Colleen Miller and DeForest Kelley. A detective goes undercover with a band of criminals that has been breaking criminals out of jail, running up their reward prices and then killing them to collect the reward.

Plot-wise this is a fairly standard Western with the usual stock characters and lacks any real character arc. Mostly the film is well made for it's B-movie nature and looks fairly decent compared to some you will see. About the most interesting thing is seeing DeForest Kelley in an non Star Trek role otherwise this is an average effort with a slightly unnecessary use of narration.


3/5
