The Trap

This was a pretty good modern western set in a desert town.

The outdoor scenes were pretty cool even though the action and script are nothing to write home about.

LEE J COBB plays an italian gangster who arrives in the town to escape on a plane. He has the best lines in the movie.

Unfortunately, the two brothers who try to thwart his plans after his goons kill their father (the sheriff) have been written as total squares. Their tormented characters become hard to digest after a while.

Apart from the arid, desolate and wonderful desert scenery, the sweaty dirty TINA LOUISE who comes in between the two brothers is another one of the film's attractions.
