TERROR IN A TEXAS TOWN (1958) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Joseph H. Lewis
 
Written by - Dalton Trumbo
 
Starring - Sterling Hayden
 
 
 
"Reminescent of the western style of classics, especially High Noon, and predating in many ways what would become the new language of the American B-movie, Terror in a Texas Town stars Hayden as a Swedish peace loving seaman who finds himself in Texas looking for revenge after he finds out his father was murdered. An admirable build up of tension leads to one of the most original final showdowns in the genre’s history. Though people that have seen this film remember it fondly, Terror in a Texas Town still remains somewhat of a hidden gem."
