“When the Texas Plains Ran With Blood and Black Gold!”
ActionWesternDrama
Armed with a harpoon, a Swedish whaler is out for revenge after the death of his father. A greedy oil man trying to buy up the Swede's land might be the guilty party.
VIBE
A stark, morally complex Western where a stoic outsider's quest for vengeance clashes with small-town corruption. It feels lean, mean, and surprisingly profound for a B-movie.
