A man who fought for the South in the Civil War, is framed for murder and watches his family get killed as he is run out of town after being labeled a negro sympathizer. Slow and dramatic, nothing ever really happens, but the tension is built in a way that makes you think something will. When shit finally does happen, it's so forced and so cartoonishly evil that it takes you away and just makes you want to quit the film out of shame.
Seriously They made the main villain so unbelievably evil. How so? Well here's a checklist of every evil deed (in order):
- He's a former overseer
- Pays slaves in un-redeemable coupons
- Hangs negros (Naturally)
- Sends an innocent man to prison and rapes that man's wife in front of him
- Pistol whipped that man's son and dumped the body down a well [Yes. A fucking water well!]
- Tortures whores
- Massacres negroes
- Shatters a family's tombstones spreads the shards across town
- Brings a whip to a fist fight
- Brings a hidden derringer to a fist fight.
I think only UDay Hussain can say that he's done worse.
Out of Ten? 4
This film is like a long ass western soap opera.
Violence? Yes
Explosions? No
Nudity? Yes
