Cheyenne: Review

starstarstarstar
Although the story is long in the tooth, this retread of familiar frontier lore benefits from the vigorous efforts of director Dimitri Logothetis and his hardworking cast. Bounty hunters like Jeremiah (Gary Hudson) didn’t have an easy time plying their trade in the Wild West. After Jeremiah brings in wanted man Axel Madsen (Cole McKay), Sheriff Toynbee (Tobin Bell) pays a fraction of the price due and powerful rancher Captain Starrett (Bo Svenson) vows to lynch him Jeremiah because Axel was one of his paid desperadoes. Starrett also has other irons in the fire, having hired legendary tracker Haddox (MC Hammer) and his dwarf guide, Razor (Robert Bell) to track down his runaway wife, Cheyenne (Bobbie Phillips). To save his neck, Jeremiah proposes conducting his own simultaneous search for Cheyenne, who absconded with her skinflint Husband's fortune. Dealing with Starrett is always a dangerous game: He's a notorious welsher and a jealous spouse who gunned down Cheyenne’s ranch-hand lover. Jeremiah rescues the ungrateful Cheyenne from rapists and, resisting her efforts to turn him against Starrett, stays one step ahead of Haddox. Meanwhile, Starrett hews to his miserly pattern by stiffing a group of Mexicans in a gun deal and shooting a trusted associate rather than pay him. Cheyenne seduces Jeremiah, but still won’t reveal the location of her loot. Jeremiah manages to injure Razor, but Haddox is a riskier proposition. As Haddox closes in on the fugitives, Starrett tries to renege on his agreement with him. And Cheyenne, a born survivor, may double-cross Jeremiah to placate Starrett, who’s ready to forgive her. No matter what he does, Jeremiah is caught in the middle of a nasty crossfire. This well-tooled vehicle for B-movie hunk Hudson emphasizes his virile presence and self-deprecating delivery. Add in Phillips’ sex appeal and Svenson’s steely villainy and you have a diverting genre piece that may not sit tall in the saddle but slouches along nicely. leave a comment --Robert Pardi
