YES MISTER SHERIFF SIR
nogodnomasters4 December 2018
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of the worst westerns I have ever seen. It has some campy 1950's style and soundtrack to it, but clearly it is not designed to be a campy film. I have no idea who the blond woman is on the cover of the DVD and why they even show guys riding horses when clearly both were way out of their budget. In one scene, bad guy Big Ben (Jurgen Vollrath) turns to the supposed saloon crowd and tells them to get about their business. You never see any crowd. They didn't have any extras. Sheriff Mason (Peter Whittaker) is handcuffed to outlaw Hubert (Ian Quick) in the desert. They were mistakenly left there to die instead of being killed outright. The sheriff's wife is forced by Big Ben to be a PG saloon girl.

The two handcuffed men return for revenge in a movie which boasts a cast of nine people. The final shoot out involved 6-shooters being shot dozens of times without a reload. They had CG fire coming out of the nozzle of the gun...when they showed it. Normally they shot the scene with the nozzle end cut off, so all you got to hear was the noise of the gun. Poorly acted, poorly written, poorly directed, poorly funded. Cliche filled. MST laughable.

No bad language, sex, or nudity.

Can't be good when the actors can't supply profile picture!

I don't know exactly what to say! Doesn't anyone watch the daily film scenes. Mercy it's called a screening or review. Someone in the crew had to sitting there saying," man this is bad!" Rolling Rock! Please! Sucking out snake venom? Come on! Why do all C movies have a snake bite scene?

All the costumes are to clean and proper. Even the tac for the horses looks new. These guys are handcuffed together in a desert filled with trees. Despite the heat, their are no sweat marks under their arms.

No smokes or chewing tobacco, wow!

Big Ben... Big Ben? These two guys don't shoot off the handcuffs because in real life, a pistol round will not cut through the chain.

When they do decide to shoot the chain, it comes apart very easy. Why this page director requires 600 characters to review this movie is beyond me. Two words could some this movie up. Bad Movie!

I'm hoping this was a nod-nod, wink-wink tongue-in cheek thing

I'm gonna assume this is a light hearted, let's do a Saturday Night Live western skit kinda movie.

Cuz God help us all of it ain't.

Ugh!!

One for the western lovers.

I give it a 7/10 . We all love a good western and we all miss John Wayne and of course- Clint Eastwood, and the list goes on. This movie is missing those actors but in my opinion is keeping the Western movies going.Hell on my heels is about a Sheriff (Mason). wakes up in a dessert handcuffed to another and has to carry that person- believed to be dead. Quite a good solid story and good acting and the scenery is also better than most -in house cheaper productions. Well worth a watch if you like a western. Of course you could pick holes in the whole movie as like other movies. Such as- why did they not shoot the chains off when they overtook their ambushers. Thats what makes it unique.-That probably never happened back then.
