6/10
A better-than-average Western.

When the critic Dilys Powell said there was no such thing as a bad western she was probably thinking of a movie like "An Eye for an Eye". It's an above average B-Movie about a couple of bounty hunters, (Robert Lansing and Patrick Wayne), who go after the gang that killed Lansing's wife and son.

It's a formulaic picture but one with a few original ideas up its sleeve, (such as Wayne losing his sight), and if neither actor was ever likely to be an Oscar contender the film has a decent supporting cast, (Paul Fix, Strother Martin, Gloria Talbot and Slim Pickens in a rare villainous role), as well as some good action sequences. It's also beautifully shot on location by the great Lucien Ballard. It may not be a movie you've ever heard of but it's worth seeking out.
