Wuchak RELEASED TO VIDEO IN 2013 and directed by Christopher Forbes, "Billy the Kid" covers events when a bounty hunter (Cody McCarver) rides into the Southwestern town of Dogma intent on taking down a gang of outlaws called "The Four of the Apocalypse." Meanwhile, he meets a woman he knew years before (Kimberly Campbell) and her son, Billy (Christopher Bowman). Jerry Chesser emerges as the formidable main heavy.This movie only cost $500,000 so you have to be able to stomach micro-budget independent flicks and the limitations thereof in order to appreciate any attributes. I like watching spare-change films now and then and sorta root for them like you would a severely underdog team in sports. While there are some highlights in this film, like the soundtrack/score, some picturesque scenes and a few of the main cast members (noted above), the script needed more work because the story bogs down after the opening act. For instance, there's a lousy side plot about a goofy red-haired outlaw camping out in the town jailhouse and having a shootout with two old men. Most of the peripheral cast members aren't very good and the action scenes are okay at best, but neither would've been much of a hindrance if the story was strong and compelling. In short, without an engaging story everything else is worthless. Don't get me wrong, the plot had potential, but the script needed a lot more work. Interestingly, while the events are supposed to take place in New Mexico, the movie was shot mainly in South Carolina with a couple sequences done in Georgia and Kentucky. How could the creators possibly pull this off and make it look like the story takes place in the Southwest? Answer: They utilized several establishing shots from Lincoln County, New Mexico (with some featuring the loner protagonist). But everything else, like the lame "town" set, was shot in the East. THE FILM RUNS 1 hours & 20 minutes. WRITER: Graye Bumgardner. GRADE: D

shelbygrl24 Very poor budget film, some of the cast's attire was that not of even the time period. At one point of the movie, a young man was wearing an orange t-shirt with a blue collar and baggy jeans. The acting was horrible and hard to believe. The fight/gun scenes were unrealistic with fake blood splatter. At one point fake blood had splattered on the camera and then there was a quick camera change to a different view. Inconsistent time frames, as if they had stopped filming during a scene and then restarted. The Title shouldn't be of "Billy the Kid", as the story hardly had anything to do with Billy the Kid. I suppose if the storyline had been better and the acting it could have been way better movie. Very disappointed in the whole movie, it was a waste of my $3.00 and a wasted hour and a half of my life.

adam313107 Hmmmm where to start. Lets start with the four horsemen of the apocalypse. I have seen more intimidating geezers in nursing homes. These four old timers are gunfighters like carrot top is a ladies man. And 500,000 budget? On what the 200 dollar lumber job of a crappy town or the ridiculous fake guns? The acting was so abysmal I did not know whether to laugh or to cry. I could not imagine a lobotomy being much worse than this experience. Definitely a top 5 in worst movie of all time. Certainly wins number 1 for worst western of all time. So there is this scene where the scary bad guy ( age 80 plus) gimps into the saloon (smaller than my bedroom actually)and aside from a couple of tables and chairs the only thing in the bar is the very cheap little bar itself...and since there is no backdoor it is the lone object that the evil old fart could possibly be hiding behind. But alas our sharp witted hero and his fat helper walk in and look around then both turn their backs to the bar and start looking at the ground. Where could he possibly be? they seem to be thinking. Then...SURPRISE...gramps comes out from behind the bar and starts shooting. And here I thought that the hiphop witch starring vanilla ice was a bad movie .
