Description:
Saddle up for a thrilling tale of heroes and villains in this "thought-provoking" western with "an ending that is truly different" (Film and Television Daily). Starring "tall, dark and handsome" (Hollywood Citizen-News) Clint Walker (Sam Whiskey) and the legendary Vincent Price(The Pit and the Pendulum) in one of his most colorful roles, this action-packed drama aims high and hits its mark! After serving 18 years, "Killer" Cain (Walker) is released from prison, determined never to touch a gun again. But the only job he can get is with Dan Ruffalo's (Price) traveling sideshow as the sharpshooting main attraction. As Cain works to build an honest future free of bullets and bloodshed, his enemies look to settle old scores. Now Cain must risk his new lifeto become the "Killer" once more or be haunted by his past forever.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "never holster an empty gun"
Made just before the "wild bunch" this features several bloody shoot-outs with vincent price getting a gun(in slow-mo)emptied into him. Much of the movie has walker unsuccessfully re-starting his life after leaving prison. His past as gunfighter keeps him from getting hired anyplace where he is known, his limited work is ruined by old enemies and some new ones, it is hard to keep track of how many people want him dead. A friendly carnival owner(price)is only out to exploit him while his other young ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Title says it all
Below-average man-running-away-from-his-past western starring Clint Walker as Cain, Killer Cain, a man who'd carved 12 notches on his death-dealing pistol before the authorities caught up with him and threw him in the jug for 18 years. MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE catches up with him at the time of his release when he, a reformed man, tries to build a new, law-abiding life.

Of course, disappearing into the moiling crowd is easier when you don't stand 6'6" and don't have the physique of a circus ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Enjoyable Western.
Just to clarify,my DVD has both the Edited and Unedited Version.
So I would suggest,check the flipside as well.
Interesting storyline with twists galore,during the action-packed final 20 minutes.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - More Dead Than Alive
Great movie but this version was edited....I do not know why big studios like MGM would release an edited version of a movie...



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Strange But Typical Late Sixties Western
As the country changed, so does popular culture. And the Western genre, which had been a movie mainstay for thirty years at this point, began to change. The Western was traditionally one of the most stable and dependable genres. The good guys were good, the bad guys were bad, and happy endings were always in store.

More Dead Than Alive is very typical of the Westerns that took over the genre in the late Sixties and early Seventies. The good guys were not always so good, the bad guys were either ... Read More
