While I have witnessed many stirring performances in my time, the thespianic masterpiece from the bartender was truly worth $18.44 paid to Wal-Mart. His performance alone saved the entire film for me, who was that handsome devil? As far as the other actors go - Dell Johnson, the weather worn deputy was equally great in his role. As well, Mitch the barber, played by Brad Leland, was strong yet sympathetic. Both performances were powerful while remaining fresh and balanced. The overall look of the film was dark, saturated and very cinematic. The chase scene was also dynamic but it seemed like something might have been left out? Overall While Sorbo holds the film together, he can't quite match the powerhouse performance by that bartender!
