Scott must rescue Nancy Gates from her Comanche captors and return the woman to her husband. He is assisted by a trio of criminals, who are out for the reward money and who plan to divide the spoils with as few partners as possible. As his ranks diminish in the face of Indian resistance, Scott must finish his mission alone. Comanche Station was scripted by Burt Kennedy, later a top western director is his own right. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Michael E. Grost, Classic Film and Television
Strange Western with unusually sympathetic bad guys.
-
Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Brilliantly scripted by Burt Kennedy.
-
Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid
Fans will notice the same general plot arc and the same general characters as the other six [films], but still told with the same expert economy, use of space and psychological detail.
-
Steve Crum, Video-Reviewmaster.com
Gritty Randolph Scott western directed by Budd Boetticher.
