Ghost Town

Even with the short run time of 1hr 24mins(including credits) this story felt very drawn out and was actually pretty boring. If you are looking for a gory, ghost western shoot'em up, then this isn't for you. The makeup and costumes were fine. There was one cool puppet/animateonic corpse at the beginning but outside of that there was nothing. It seriously felt like an episode from HBO's Tales From The Crypt or a made for TV movie that should have been 45mins long.

While driving in a lonely road in the desert of Arizona, Kate (Catherine Hickland) is hit by a sand storm and disappears. Sheriff Langley (Franc Luz) finds her wrecked car and out of the blue, a man shoots him and his car explodes. He wanders in the desert looking for Kate and stumbles upon a ghost town. Soon Langley has visions of ghosts and apparitions in the town. He also learns the fate of the town that was cursed by the cruel outlaw Devlin (Jimmie F. Skaggs) and his men, and the residents will only rest in peace when a man of law defeats and kills Devlin and his gang. "Ghost Town" (1988) is a nice combination of western and horror films. The screenplay is well written and the cast has good performances. Catherine Hickland and Laura Schaefer are very beautiful, making the movie more attractive. Unfortunately, "Ghost Town" was only released on VHS in Brazil. My vote is six. Title (Brazil): "A Cidade Fantasma" ("The Ghost Town")
