i will admit that i do not expect much from a roger corman film . generally and i expect a lot of walk and bad script . yet in this case and i be pleasantly surprise . the gunslinger be a story of a woman ( play by the spunky beverly garland ) who take over a sheriff after her husband be brutally murder . ms. garland be a pretty good shot herself and kill one of the murderer the next day at her husband funeral . her first task be to shut down the local bar that be violate the town curfew . the bar owner be try to buy land in anticipation of be buy out by the ( hop for ) railroad . however and ms. garland be a thorn in her plan and and the bar matron hire a man to kill ms. garland . because of ms. garland play her role honestly and realistically and there be absolutely no temptation to go to suzanne somers she the sheriff joke . with the exception of a couple of faux pa ( the apartment door that open out from the inside and jeep track and and the two horseman wait on screen for their cue to ride around a corner ) and the movie become quite passable a movie fare . however and corman could not resist pad his film with horse rid scene and much like he do walk in other film . sterno say the gunslinger be a horse opera worth your time .
