Movies starring Jim Davis

Hellfire (1949)

90 mins     Western      

Does being different to the norm make a movie automatically good? For me the answer is always no but it certainly makes a movie interesting which is the case of 1940s western "Hellfire". The interest comes from the fact this ...

The Cariboo Trail (1950)

The Restless Breed (1957)

86 mins     Western      

Here is how I see "The Restless Breed" Steve Fisher created a moody screenplay about a young man whose determination to get justice for his father's murder leads him into a dark place. Mitch is not uneducated; he has the smar...

The Search (1967)

75 mins     TV Movie, Western      

Joseph Cotten quite often played forgettable characters, similar sorts of people and he played them so well, but you won't forget his performance in "The Search", episode 9 of "Cimarron Strip", because he plays doctor Nathan ...

Five Bloody Graves (1970)

88 mins     Western      

After the shocking credits "Five Bloody Graves" starts in a poor but okay way as we see Ben Thompson riding across the country. Yes the image quality is poor but it is no worse than countless westerns from over the years and ...

Monte Walsh (1970)

106 mins     Western      

As is so often the case I came to watch "Monte Walsh" ass about face as I saw the 2003 remake with Tom Selleck and Keith Carradine before seeing this 1970 version with Lee Marvin and Jack Palance. But the good thing is that i...

The Trackers (1971)

73 mins     TV Movie, Western      

"Shenandoah" it isn't but there is some thing about "The Trackers" which ends up more engaging than you expect it to be from a 70s TV movie. I say that because "The Trackers" features a simple and mostly predictable storyline...

Law of the Land (1976)

100 mins     TV Movie, Western      

It has the look, it has the music, it has the array of stars; "Law of the Land" could quite easily have been an episode from one of those old western series such as "Gunsmoke". And that is how it initially comes across as we ...

The Day Time Ended (1979)

79 mins     Sci-Fi      

I will give you 2 reasons why you might want to watch "The Day Time Ended" and the first is the cast. This 70s sci-fi movie features Jim Davis who many will remember from Dallas, the attractive Dorothy Malone as well as Chris...
