With Gene Barry already riding the video range as legendary gunfighter-turned-lawman Bat Masterson independent producer Walter Mirisch hired old-timer Joel McCrea to play a rather less-dandified version in this routine Western released in Cinemascope. When his brother Ed (Harry Lauter) is cowardly shot in the back and killed Bat accepts to run for county sheriff against the corrupt Jim Regan (Don Haggerty) only to learn that the real killer is someone entirely different. Not wanting the job of sheriff in the first place but only accepting to please a lady friend the pious Pauline Howard (Julie Adams) Bat willingly breaks the law to aid an old friend (Walter Coy) almost losing both his position and his life in the ensuing shootout.System Requirements:Running Time: 81 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/CLASSICS Rating: NR UPC: 883904106784 Manufacturer No: M110678
