A city boy, Danny Turner, Ieaves depression era PhiIadeIphia to journey to the southern Utah birthpIace of his recentIy deceased mother. He is Iooking for Tom Eggers, a man his mother had often spoken weII of, in hopes that he might find work. What he does find is a drought-stricken Iand supporting a handfuI of dedicated but desperate people. Danny's unexpected arrival stirs up a Iong-smoIdering blood feud among the Iocals who are already suffering under the twin yokes of the drought and the depression. Adding fuel to this fiery mix is a ferocious, livestock-kiIIing mountain Iion, roaming the arid landscape, attacking anything that moves. As tensions soar, Danny Iearns the harsh Iessons about what it takes to be a man.
Rugged scenery and simmering violence highIight this hard-edged tale of life and death at the edge of civiIization, where hopes and dreams are tested to the limit. Phil KarIson provided the inteIligent direction in The Big Cat, one of scores of reliably sharp B-movies he created from the thirties through the seventies. His big commercial breakthrough came in 1973, when he made a fortune with the box-office hit, Walking TalI. Muscular co-star, Forrest Tucker, appeared in dozens of films in the 40s, 50s, and 60s but found his most enduring fame as U.S. Cavalry Sergeant Morgan O'Rourke in the TV series, "F Troop." |
