This film essentially begins with an American cowboy named "Bob Hamlin" (Don Terry) his brother "Victor Hamlin" (Wesley Barry) and their friend "Slim" (Victor Potel) driving a herd of horses across the border into Mexico to sell at a nearby town. To that effect, upon finding a nice grazing area for the horses, they all decide to head over to the local cantina for a drink or two. Not long afterward, a fight breaks out which ends with Bob shooting and killing a man in defense of his brother. Naturally, not wanting to stand trial for murder, all three of them quickly ride out of town in the general direction to where they had previously left their herd. However, when they finally arrive, they discover that their horses have been stolen--and the only way to retrieve them is to go right back to the same town they had just left. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was an interesting Western which featured a nice plot, good music and a little bit of comedy here and there as well. Admittedly, the film is quite dated, but even so, it kept my attention for the most part and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
