"Gold Of The Seven Saints" (1961)
-Clint Walker, Roger Moore
Film Synopsis: IMDB
Fur-trapper Shawn Garrett gets out of a horse-stealing charge in a small, frontier town by agreeing to buy the horse with a gold nugget. This nugget attracts the attention of a man named McCracken who, with his gang, secretly follows Garrett across the desert in the hope of finding the source of his gold. Garrett joins up with his partner, Jim Rainbolt, and together they manage to hold off McCracken's gang long enough to hide their gold before seeking refuge in the hacienda of a landowner named Gondora. Gondora soon finds out about the gold, however, and Rainbolt and Garrett now find themselves in a fight to save their gold and their lives as well.
Phantoms Review: Standard "B" western. Most of the film takes place in the dessert and just shows the stars trekking across the sands running from the bad guys. Nothing very exciting. A couple of okay shoot out scenes, but nothing great. My biggest complaint is that Roger Moore's character is supposed to be Irish, but Moore can never hold on to an Irish accent. Overall. a forgettable film.
