Review of The Stalking Moon (1968) by Ashley H — 17 Oct 2009
This western was released when Hollywood was about finished with the genre and the film went unnoticed. However, the movie is well photographed, with good work by Gregory Peck, Although Eva Marie Saint doesn't have much to do in the way of dialogue.
The film has plenty of suspense, creepy shadows, and eerie noises in the dark and at times seems more like a mystery than a western. Most of the action occurs at picture's end, and Fred Karlin's plaintive yet thrilling score builds up the tension as Peck and Salvaje edge towards their showdown.
