This review is on One Foot in Hell from 1960, starring: Alan Ladd, Don Murray, Dan O'Herlihy, Dolores Michaels, Barry Cole, Larry Gates and directed by James B. Clark.
Alan Ladd plays Mitch Barrett, who becomes angry with the town that let his ill wife die by not giving her medicine. Barrett becomes the town Sheriff to set-up an elaborate bank robbery with the help of an artist, pickpocket, a gunslinger and a bar-girl. In conjunction of the robbery, Barrett plans to avenge himself to everyone who hindered his purchase of a single bottle of medicine for his wife years ago.
This film is one of the last films Alan Ladd appeared in before his death in 1964.
This is a 20th Century Fox Cinema Archives release and has a pretty good video and audio with the no special features. The film is
presented in color, Widescreen and runs for about 90mins (1hr 30mins). This is one of a few Fox's Cinema Archives that keeps the original aspect ratio and is not a Pan&Scan.
I would give this film a 7/10 and the DVD a 4/5. Overall this is a great DVD release and is a film I would recommend.
