Featured review
Fort Utah
John Ireland plays Tom Horn, a man trying to go from nowhere to somewhere who rides right into an Indian uprising in the process. He finds himself trying to save the members of a wagon train, first from the Indians, then from the renegade whites who massacred an Indian village to set the redskins on the warpath in the first place.
John Russell plays Ela Jonas, a guide who lost one wagon train and desperately wants to lead this one to safety. Robert Strauss plays Ben Stokes, a grizzled Indian agent. And Virginia Mayo is Linda Lee, a woman headed West as a singer ... or a mail-order bride ... or perhaps a prostitute ... who tries to hide the truth from everyone but Horn.
All find themselves in the abandoned Fort Utah, wondering who they'll have to fight off - the Indians or the white renegades, led by Dajin (Scott Brady). And wondering where the cavalry troop that was supposed to occupy the fort has gone.
Wagon train travelling in perilous country, smoke signals, renegades, deserted fort and angry native Americans - this western full of familiar tropes but it's not any less enjoyable. Actually the plot is quite good - there's no cavalry coming to the rescue and the bad guys are not the Indians, but a band of renegade led by Scott Brady. There's some good action sequences especially at the end and good performances by John Ireland, Virginia Mayo and John Russell. It might have stock footages, poor stunt doubling but it does its job as diverting time filler.
