Low Budget Ho-Hum Western, 26 February 2002
4/10
Author: cwdfwtx from texas

some interesting scenery but rather bland 70's western fare. only things of interest i noted are the character actors from old westerns like arthur honnicutt and denver pyle and L Q .Jones. Also Dawn Wells in her post Maryann days from gilligans island. She really cannot act dramatically and her narration at the end of the movie is rather silly as she describes her farewell journey with silverhawk and meeting her younger brother years later,it comes off rather syrupy.

Of note Chuck Pierce directed this movie ,, he also did the boggy creek movies ..and his son chuck jr plays dawn wells' characters younger brother cotton..
