This edited version of "One-Eyed Horse" is faster paced and more dynamic. Mark Redfield and Richard Cutting deliver memorable performances that should launch their careers significantly. This will not be the only time we hear from director Wayne Shipley. He has the touch.

This adult western revenge story with a bit of a twist in the ending is very well acted by all the principal members of a cast of unknowns. It also looks good, especially for an indie. It doesn't have much blood and gore, but if you want an involving western story give this one a shot.

A human tragedy set in the old west. This movie is interesting, moves quickly in most places, and reminds us all of the futility of harboring hate and revenge for a lifetime. There are at least 3 of the 7 deadly sins at work in this film. Kick back and enjoy it some rainy afternoon for what it is....entertaining and thought provoking.

I really liked the influence of Shakespeare in this well-written classic tale of the old west. The scenery was beautiful and the costumes were authentic. The story line was easy to follow. In many instances I could feel their revenge. The fight scenes were tremendous. I enjoyed every minute of it! I hope to see more films from Wayne Shipley in the near future.

More independents should turn out like this western. If you watch it to be critical, you'll lose out. The story line ran smooth, The clothing, firearms and gun leather was authentic. The Mark Redfield, Mike Hagan and Jennifer Rouse will be seen again, I'm sure. The extras did a great job. Hard to believe this was shot in Maryland. It really looked like Missouri. I hope Wayne Shipley is planning another .

I found this film fascinating. There's much more story than in your typical 'western'. It's more a drama that takes place in the west. The actors were into their roles...you could 'feel' what they were feeling.

I love the twist at the end.

I was blessed to have played a very minor extra on this film from WAYNE SHIPLEYs' heart and soul.

There are several versions available for purchase. I gain something different each time I view any version.

Words can't describe being a small part of this 'magical experience'. Wayne and his 'Film Family' truly have a gift. thank you Wayne et al....'Sassy' Buttons and Bows aka Barb ^i^ ^j^ ^i^

I tried valiantly in hoping this Blu Ray would be up to some standard since customers are looking for those elusive great (or even good) westerns. This failed in every category.

The video quality had a used VHS feel to it. There was artifact, grain and pixels throughout. The sound had crackling at times, and registered no more than 2.0. There are no chapter stops, no menus, nothing.

The story of retribution, unhealed Civil War wounds and the need for gunfights were not lost here, but I think everything else was. Technically, this was a disaster. Within the first 20 minutes, there were so many guffaws, flubs and horrible writing that I wanted to quit, but I didn't. In one kitchen scene, I looked at the reflection of the entire boom mic guy for a good three minutes (kudos to the guy in the red shirt & white hair holding the microphone- you had the best acting). The gunfights were so bad, they did not even try to show the slightest recoil with any of the guns, then once I saw the fifth wristwatch tan line (very obvious because they made a point of doing closeups) I just gave up.

This movie company is advertising for us to buy more of these unreturnable 3DVD/1 BluRay packages (as this one was) for their next three movies in April, but I have learned my lesson and will not be ordering.

This movie is horrible. The acting is laughable, literally. And the writing doesn't give the actors much of an opportunity, so they never had a chance.

I have to have my occasional fix of the western genre. I love a good one, the last being 3:10 to Yuma. This movie however is just bad. The acting is terrible, the daughter is like a valley girl, the sheriff is awful, the indian girl? The costumes are weird and the music dosent make any sense. There are so many technical things, cameras in the background, wristwatch lines it is laughable. I am sorry-do not buy this movie.
