Lash LaRue was great in his old movies. He specialised in using a wip in the old cowboy movies. But in his senior years he made this B-movie which in my opinion was just for fun. He plays an unusual hero and takes the role of a protector type that the young woman of his town adore. This movie starts off really slow to build the plot line. and then becomes a fast paced massacre of the worst special effects of that time. If you are a b-movie fan then rent it . everyone else try to avoid this one.

Well, this is a pretty low budget horror flick, that tries to have some goofy moments here and there - you could classify this as a horror/comedy I guess. Nothing happens for the first 45 minutes, and when it does it's basically cheap frills. There is some mildly respectable gore that could keep some entertained, but that's only if you can stay awake until then.

This film was so terrible! The storyline was poor and the actors were amateurs. It had no redeeming value.

Yeah, this movie was a bit slow on the action. There's a lot of exposition that helps explain the scenario which is good but a bit repetitive. It did have some fun goofy moments and the special effects were of almost Troma proportions. It's fun but don't expect too much.
