Ride in the Whirlwind

Three cowhands between jobs had the unfortunate misfortune of pitching a night camp in the same valley as a cabin full of men who have just robbed a stagecoach and murdered the guard. A posse arrives in the morning, forms up along the ridge, and assumes that everyone down below is guilty—fit for either being shot to pieces or hanged from a tree, whichever comes first. Approximately half of Ride in the Whirlwind's 82 minutes is devoted to capturing the situation's matter-of-fact, absurdist horror. In the second half, the two surviving cowpokes (Jack Nicholson and Cameron Mitchell) seek refuge at a farmhouse, where they reluctantly threaten the farmer, accept breakfast from his wife, flirt with his daughter (Millie Perkins), play checkers, and hope to go unnoticed until nightfall.
