Trailer Synopsis Cast

It’s 1860 and a U.S. Marshal is escorting his prisoner, Thomas Redding, to trial for the killing of two women. They wind up in a town that no one ever knew of with ghostly occurrences. The avenging Greek Goddess Nemesis tells the Marshal that here everyone is treated equally. The Marshal kills the ghost of a man whom he killed years earlier several times and Redding becomes the victim of the spirits of the women he killed, only to be brought back by Nemesis. The Marshal uses his wits to be rid of all ghosts. Nemesis appears as a hideous human/reptilian creature about to kill the Marshal. Darlene reappears and stops Nemesis citing she was created for the retribution of humans and not her own. With that, the women disappear. In Yuma, Redding is found guilty at trial but punishment had already been served by Maxine and Darlene and Redding is released. In a flash, Redding is transported back to the Town of Justice by Nemesis and now faces revenge by all the men he killed.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Okay, I'm not going to say this is a good movie, because it really isn't. But if I were scoring it for effort, I'd give it a 10. Maybe an 11.This is a zero-budget horror western. An 1860's marshal is taking a murderer to his trial in Yuma. They get sidetracked in a really odd ghost town. Much weirdness ensues.The story is really, really interesting. The writing isn't bad, and sometimes it's downright good. The actors playing the marshal and the badman are both entertaining. The marshal is low-key and earnest, and the bad guy is an over-the-top psycho. Gotta love that.But the movie suffers a whole lot due to the lack of budget. The costuming is bad to the point of hilarity. Female characters appear in everything from 1980's style prom dresses that kinda-sorta look like they were western inspired, to Frederick's of Hollywood lingerie. A peripheral male character is actually wearing acid-washed jeans. The special effects are cringe-making. (Okay, there's one good gunshot to the head. I'm guessing everybody pooled their money for that one.) But don't get me wrong--I'm not dissing this flick. I totally admire anyone who can get their act together enough to create a DIY movie. And this one has some real imagination behind it. Yay for indie filmmakers!
