Movie Review by CowboyJunkie
June 2nd, 2009

AN EXCELLENT WESTERN SPOOF

Favorite Movie Quote: "I doctor packing mules, too.... So, if you've got a pain in your ass, just come and see ol' Doc Shultz."

Ya-Hoo!

The Wild, Wild West just got a whole lot wilder (and wackier, too).

Welcome to Purgatory, Colorado, the rootin' tootin' gold-mining town in the classic Western tradition.

Released in 1971 - Rugged, Character-Actor, JAMES GARNER, stars as Latigo Smith, a thoroughly charming con-man/hustler, who quietly arrives in town one evening, and then cleverly attempts to pass off an incompetent drifter named Jugg May as the notorious gunslinger 'Swifty' Morgan.

With his 'get-rich-quick' scheme set in motion, Latigo cunningly plays 2 rival mining companies, led by Taylor Barton and Colonel Ames, against each other. And, so, the frantic race for an untold fortune is set to go off, just like a keg of tightly packed dynamite.

Ka-Pow!

And, who will be the first to reach 'The Motherlode' of pure gold that's buried somewhere beneath the town of Purgatory? Well - You'll just have to watch this superb Western Spoof to find out.

Believe me, it's gonna be a mighty wild and wacky race for the jackpot.

Non-stop, Western-Style fun, round the clock.

Yippee! Ya-Hoo!
