LAST OF THE WILD HORSES

Cinemavixion Review

In the rugged landscape of Jacksonville, Oregon, "Last of the Wild Horses" gallops onto the screen, offering a surprisingly heroic turn from B-western stalwart James Ellison. Ellison embodies a would-be stagecoach bandit whose path takes an unexpected detour into heroism when he aids a rider fleeing pursuers. The narrative then deepens as Ellison finds himself entangled in the volatile politics of a brewing range war, investigating the suspicious disappearance of horses and a grim murder. While the directorial hand is not explicitly credited here, the film's strength lies in its on-location photography and Ellison's earnest performance, which elevates a familiar Western trope into a compelling tale of redemption and conflict resolution. It's a solid entry for fans of classic Westerns, showcasing a blend of action and intrigue.
