off beat casting of dean martin a the town tyrant who and among other thing want the stagecoach line that his former lover and jean simmons and currently own . in step george peppard and play a former deputy and who come to town and eventually get catch up in thing when his good sense tell him that he shouldn not stay . simmons play a hand in this . slim pickens and who usually play good guy and play one of matin henchman . the film get rather violent especially the fight scene between peppard and pickens which begin with pickens use a whip . acting be quite good . i like don galloway and john mcintyre in support role . it be a bit of a stretch to believe martin a a total villain but he pull it off quite well .
