Burn the print!, 8 April 2007

Poor lighting has already been mentioned as one of this film's shortcomings. The continuity is poor as well. Near the end when the father arms himself, you will notice that he is likely to have a different weapon seconds later. Also notice when Richard (Dick) Sargent and the father recover his daughter that they had two rifles but arrive at the ranch with just one. Oh yeah, when the two left to go find her, the father left the house with a lever action but when they found the girl the father had a bolt action rifle. It was difficult to tell for certain, but it looked like Sargent had a shotgun, not a lever action. It was bad. Maybe I'll try to find Plan 9 to see if it is worse than "The Beast with a Million Eyes." At least I saw it on TCM and didn't have to suffer commercials as a previous reviewer was forced to do.
