action

Paul Driscoll and his bride are tried as traitors and tell what they experienced: Driscoll is on his way to Arizona to take possession of the land that the government has given him; he also wants to marry the pretty singer Mary who accompanies him. They have joined a group of settlers, which is accompanied by a military patrol, and witness the attack of the Indians under the leadership of their chief Geronimo. The group holed up in the abandoned Fort Grant, where the resistance of the settlers is becoming increasingly crumbling due to the incessant attacks of the besiegers, the burgeoning boredom and the prevailing water shortage. Driscoll does everything possible to remind defenders of the honor and freedom that are at stake.

criticism

“Poor, in some scenes quite brutal westerns, at best average in terms of staging and acting.” Was the verdict of the lexicon of the international film , while Hal Erickson in AllRovi came to the conclusion “Quite brutal, but undeniably fascinating”.
