Moviecut—Oklahoma Territory

Historically incorrect, but nevertheless an above average B western starring Bill Williams as Temple Houston, the son of fabled Sam Houston and a gun-totting District Attorney that is a fearless believer in justice. Railroad agent Bigelow(Grant Richards)frames Cherokee Chief Buffalo Horn(Ted de Corsia)for the vicious murder of the district Indian Commissioner. Bigelow's agenda is to have the Cherokees to declare war breaking a treaty thus making their lands available for use by the railroad. Houston is forced to prosecute his friend Buffalo Horn in the Ft. Smith courtroom of "the hanging Judge" Thomas Parker(Thomas Broome Henry). OKLAHOMA TERRITORY is filmed in Chatsworth, California. The cast also features: Walter Sande, X. Brands, John Cliff and that B-movie mainstay Gloria Talbot. Just a little over an hour running time and directed by Edward L. Cahn. Worth the wampum.

Eddy Cahn was a cheap productions director, we can't deny this and this film is the best proof. But it is well done, fast paced, though with no surprises, nor exciting moments either. The usual and predictable scheme of man accused of a murder he did not commit, and also the scheme of evil white dudes that do their best to jeapardize peace treaty between Indians and Whites. So, you see, nothing exceptional. Ted de Corsia's presence is a good positive thing to enhance the whole stuff.
