Gli avventurieri di Santa Marta

Begins with execution for gun running into mexico.

My summary is a bit deceiving. There is a character in this film named Johnny Cash...though it's not THE Johnny Cash...just a character played by Dick Foran.

When the story begins, three unsavory friends are about to be executed, as they were trying to sneak guns into Mexico. However, they manage to escape and walk back over the border to the States. There they come upon a small town where SOME unknown bandit is harassing the community and shooting people. At first, they think it's these three gunrunners, but a young lady has faith in them and helps them establish their innocence. Soon one of them (Albert Dekker) is the sheriff and he vows to clean up the town. But can he? And, considering their unsavory pasts, why would they?

This is a B-western plot all the way but with A-list Fred MacMurray in the lead as well as Gilbert Roland and Dekker. This makes it almost like a B+ film instead of a B. Worth seeing but despite the cast, it's nothing remarkable.
