All Steve Reeves fans anticipated the release of A LONG RIDE FROM HELL in 1970. Unfortunately it was hard to find as it had LIMITED release. It was seen as "just another Spaghetti Western" like so many released in the 6 years before it. Steve Reeves bought the rights to the movie book and helped write the script and was counting on it's success. Unfortunately the world only saw Steve Reeves as the movie HERCULES and had trouble accepting him in a Western role. I first saw the film on video and enjoyed it. It is too bad that it wasn't made years earlier. Reeves was great in the lead role and the supporting cast displayed believable characters.
Steve Reeves was so dedicated to the authenticity of this movie, he flew to Yuma, Arizona and photographed the old prison there and then had it duplicated in Spain for this movie. Now that is dedication.
It is now on Y/T f or you to enjoy.
