Anecdotes
The movie was the very last production filmed on the famous "Mayberry" back-lot set at Desilu Studios in Culver City, California. This was just before the back-lot was razed in 1976. This film ended an era that lasted 49 years for the former "RKO 40 Acres" back-lot and then "Desilu Culver" back-lot.

Gaffes
When Little Dee talked to Ben Arnold before she let, she told him she saw his brother Aaron Arnold kill the deputy and even where the body was, which he found. But when he brought the body in and confronted his brother, he only said that Little Dee saw the deputy at the farm where Aaron was the night before, not that she saw him kill the deputy.

Citations
Little Dee: You're a cop? I hate cops.
Aaron Arnold: So do I.

Ridicoules '70's violence exploitation flick.

Nothing wrong with a silly exploitation flick every once in while but this movie is just ridicules in a lazy kind of way.

It's basically a very messy movie with some lazy writing in it. Not as if any exploitation flicks ever featured a brilliant or original story but at least they often make more sense in their own universe. I had the idea that for this movie the creators were just shooting away. Moments and characters in the movie just often don't make sense at all, which makes this entire movie seem like a quite ridicules one.

You could definitely say that this movie had some potential in it. I like the fact that this movie is being like a modern western, in which a bunch of tough guys with a badge cause mayhem and try to take over a town with their terror. Its easily a type of story you could expect in any type of western.

It's however a very random movie. All of the actions from the bad guys seem pointless and often very stupid. It's purely put into the movie to make it seem like a violent one but it makes the characters look totally ridicules. The movie and its characters often make a very pointless impression.

I also just don't understand some of the characters. People and also loved ones are getting killed in this movie but hardly anyone seems to worry too much about this and life goes on as usual. It doesn't exactly help to make the movie a very believable one.

Kris Kristofferson still added some spice but you can't really say that this movie was his greatest moment.

4/10
