A Code Red Release! A Native American (Paul Koslo, Mr. Majestyk, The Laughing Policeman) travels around a resort town, murdering cops and rich people with a high-powered crossbow, while demanding that the town’s richest residents pay him money to stop the killings. The richest man in town (Stuart Whitman, Eaten Alive, Strange Shadows In An Empty Room) hires a mercenary (Oliver Reed, Burnt Offerings, The Hunting Party) and a tracker (Jim Mitchum, Trackdown, Blackout, Moonrunners) to stop this mad man, while a reporter (Deborah Raffin, The Dove, The Sentinel, God Told Me To) gets close to the story. Also starring John Ireland (The Incubus, Tomorrow Never Comes, Welcome To Arrow Beach) and directed by Richard Compton (Macon County Line, Welcome Home Soldier Boys) now watch this action classic in widescreen for the first time, from a brand new HD master.
