Product Description
In the late 1800s, a beautiful former prostitute (January Jones) is trying to build an honest life with her husband in the rugged plains of New Mexico. When she catches the eye of a sadistic and powerful religious leader (Jason Isaacs), her life is violently turned upside down. She embarks on a bloody course of vengeance with the assistance of a renegade sheriff (Ed Harris) who has pretty violent tendencies of his own.

Isaacs made the audience loath the "Prophet" character and Harris' potrayal of "Sheriff Jackson" was fun to watch.
Jones' character "Sarah Ramirez", who I think is supposed to be the true main character? seemed to end up as a innocent bystander to the fall out between Sheriff Jackson and The Prophet. Jones does get her's toward the end of the movie but Jones never seemed to play the character with any real emotion, maybe this was by design I don't know but with the anticts of Isaacs' and Harris' characters I think Jones might have upped the ante a bit.
The plot to this movie is tried and true so I don't think there are any real surprises here? It is violent and bloody but I believe most of it is quite inline with the plot and not in any way over done. There are a few veiled referances to to Mormanism though nothing out right. All in all just a entertaining movie, of course I really like Ed Harris he knows the right way to get on a horse and the right way to handle a Colt single action.
The story line was original and something rare in westerns and had a strong female character also rare. January Jones did a great job but of course my favorite performance was by Ed Harris. He played the quirky sheriff investigating various murders committed by the villain played by Jason Isaacs who did a wonderful job. You know you have a great villain when you find them vile and repulsive. I do have to give credit to the writers however, because they had the villain do some dispicable things meriting the hate. Beyond the villain, January and Ed, the supporting characters were basically back drops.
I was pleasantly surprised by this small budget western and definitely recommend it. Great flick with great revenge plot and particularly liked the ending.
Most Westerns are predictable and this well-made movie tried its hardest to be satirically funny and unpredictable.
Loved the characters, especiallyJanuary Jones. What a twist to have Logan and Noah Miller who made the movie to be the first ones killed in the movie. This showed the humorous roots of this conception.
I really loved Logan and Noah's first movie "Touching Home" and just heard about their second movie last week.
Keep rolling along Logan and Noah and just know that Mr. C, your 5th grade teacher is still alive and kicking and rooting for you.

The violence is almost too much to take but you can see the comedy in it also and stand up and cheer when the villain gets his upandcomings. Ed Harris should get an academy for his saviour role. The director Logan Miller should receive an award as best director to have done such a great job as a new comer to the movies.
I loved it, bought it and watched it twice and will again and again. Nancy Lunn

We also have January Jones (Sarah Ramirez)who is newly wed to a Mexican farmer and they are trying to carve a living from the sun parched land surrounded by the sheep of Prophet Josiah. Meantime's he wants to take over their land and or convert them to be part of his fledgling flock. He is not a man for compromises and cynically uses selective quotes from the Bible in order to justify his extreme actions and views, which would probably not even be politically correct even at the time this film is set. Needless to say he is a nasty piece of work and decides he will dish out some good old fashioned justice on behalf of the almighty, whilst maintaining a harem of `God fearing' girls.
Every action has a reaction and for him it comes in the unwanted attention of both Sherriff Jackson and Mrs Ramirez who decide to get some frontier justice of their own. What follows is a brilliant story that grabs you from the off and just does not let up. There is action, humour, potty mouth cussing a plenty and some virtuoso performances from all the main players. I am a fan of Ed Harris and he never fails to put in stunning performances and some of that magic must have rubbed off as not a second of screen time seems to be wasted. Some credit must to go to director Logan Miller as this is beautifully shot too and the pacing is nigh on perfect.
Some have criticised it for being simplistic but I have to aver that this was rollicking great fun all the way. This is one of those films where you want to award more than five stars as it is simply that good. If this is the future for westerns then their continued popularity is undoubtedly assured.
Film pour public averti.
Le shérif est complètement dégenté,le prédicateur plutot bizarre.
le role féminin est très bon.
Leider sind die Farben nicht "wildwest", da südlich vom Äquartor aufgenommen.
