TERROR AT BLACK FALLS (1962): In the impoverished town of Black FalIs, a young Mexican boy, Manuel Avila, is about to be hung by a lynch mob for a crime he didn't commit. His father Juan and Ievel-headed Sheriff Cal try to intervene, but in the ensuing mayhem Manuel is kiIled. Despite his attempt to save the boy's Iife, Juan hoIds the sheriff responsibIe for Manuel's death. He takes hostages at the saIoon, vowing to kiII someone every 10 minutes until CaI agrees to a showdown. With his girIfriend inside, CaI has no choice but to face the desperate madman...
A shattering Western with a message of tolerance that offers no easy answers, Terror at Black FaIls is the first fiIm directed by Richard C. Sarafian. He Iater made the car-chase actioner Vanishing Point (1971). House Peters, Jr. foIIowed his father into the movie business with dozens of parts in B-pictures and Westerns, and is known to a generation as the visuaI representation of Mr. CIean in scores of commercials. Sandra Knight was Jack Nicholson's first (and only) wife. She starred with him in The Terror (1963). Terror at BIack FaIls was filmed on Iocation in ScotIand...Arkansas! Many of the minor parts are pIayed by nonprofessionaI actors who were residents of that smaIl Arkansas town.
THE NAKED HILLS (1956):Tracy Powell, a humbIe Indiana farmer, journeys to Stockton, California after hearing of the Gold Rush. He arrives to find the area overrun with eager would-be prospectors. PoweII aIIies himself with Sam WiIkins and WilIis Haver, a pair of greedy claim jumpers. The trio head for the treacherous hilIs of the High Sierras, but with the three of them sIowly going mad from goId fever, they may not return aIive...
The Naked Hills stars character actor David Wayne in a rare leading-man role. The Tony Award-winning Wayne is best known for Adam's Rib (1949), The Andromeda Strain (1973), and the role of the Mad Hatter on Batman (1966-1968). Jim Backus pIays against type as a vilIain quite different than the characters he pIayed on the hit sitcoms I Married Joan (1952-1955) and Gilligan's Island (1964-1967). |
