Dead Man's Bounty
Ok, from the best movie in a long time, to the worst movie EVER. I was so excited to see a western on the movie selection. What a disgrace. I was so disappointed, I may not rent a Lionsgate film for a long time. The music was terrible, the script made me want to puke and the acting was so bad, I couldn't even watch the damn thing. Fast forwarded it to the last 10 minutes after 20 minutes of crap, to find that the rest of he movie was crap as well. This movie could have been made by 12 year olds and been better. I don't normally bash writers and actors, but this was sooooo bad, it should never have been released. Maybe we could use it for our torture tactics in Iraq... 0/5 Stars.

Movie Review - Hell Town (John Wayne)
Released in 1937, Hell Town featured a young John Wayne playing the role of a smooth talking man on the run named Dare Rudd. He finds his way to Wyoming where his cousin, who is a big time cattleman/banker, is hesitant to help him out. However he promised Dare's father he would make an honest cattleman out of his cousin.
Dare, also self proclaimed "best poker player west of the Miss.", isn't interested in the honest work until he starts to fall for is cousins girl. With his newfound integrity, he sets out with a team on a drive. However after cattle thieves fail to get the cattle during the drive, they try to lure Dare back into his old habits beating him at his own game. It would take some miracle to rescue him and prove himself to his cousin and his new lady...
This movie is included in a DVD package available at Wal-Mart for around $10. It includes 20 movies mostly from the 30s. More to come...
