Tired of being victimized by a gang of outlaws, the citizens of Warlock, a small mining town, hire a professional gunslinger to clean up their community. However, the townspeople soon discover that they have only traded one form of exploitation for another.

The outlaw-besieged mining town of Warlock hires a professional vigilante gunslinger named Clay (Henry Fonda) and his club-footed sidekick (Anthony Quinn) to clean up the streets and restore law and order. They tidy things up all right, but their brutal methods call the whole concept of law and order into question. Eventually a reformed outlaw in town named Johnny (Richard Widmark) is elected sheriff, and a showdown with Clay seems inevitable, especially after a beautiful woman (Dolores Michaels) arrives in town accusing Clay of murdering her fiancé. This character-driven, thinking man's Western benefits from a cast of familiar supporting actors: Wallace Ford, Richard Arlen, Whit Bissell, DeForest Kelley (Bones from STAR TREK) and Frank Gorshin (The Riddler from TV's BATMAN). Director Edward Dmytryk successfully incorporates lofty issues of morality and masculinity into the traditional western trappings, and the result is a classic of the genre, both thoughtful and two-fisted.

Theatrical release: April 30, 1959 (New York City).

Warlock Reviews:

"Screen angel Henry Fonda is absolutely riveting in this pre-Leone transformation..." -- Kevin Maher, Uncut

"[O]ne of the most thoughtful studies of bravado and the power of holding a gun ever put on the big screen." -- Premiere Staff, Premiere

5 stars Warlock-the film that has everything
One of the best ever Westerns, can be watched again and again. With one of the best ensemble casts ever seen (watch out for Star Trek's "Bones" down the cast list), this has a story that grips all the way through. Fine moments of tension, two romantic storylines, plenty of gunplay, and the chemistry between the stars (particularly Anthony Quinn and Henry Fonda) is palpable. Quite Brilliant !

3 stars Great Old Movie
This movie is one of the old Western greats. Uncluttered with Special Effects. Nice story. Great acting by the old greats like Henry Fonda, Anthony Quinn & Richard Widmark. I enjoyed once again this "Oldtime" movie.

5 stars Over The Top Fun
Foot to the floor manic movie making. Everything is hyper. It's so far over the top that you can't help but have a great time. The print is great. The cast is having a ball and so will you.

5 stars Outstanding drama from the start to finish
I would recommend this film.I had not seen the film before, so I was not sure what to expect. The acting from the entire cast is faultless,with standout performances from the main characters. A great dramatic film!
