A group of despicable treasure seekers murder a number of Indians and kidnap a girl with possible knowledge of a goldmine, forcing her Apache warrior brother to follow.
This is basically one of co-star/director Jack Starrett's biker movies transported back in time to the old west with Jody McCrea in the all too familiar role of the sensitive outlaw surrounded by a bunch of degenerates. Watch McCrea and Robert Tessier in The Glory Stompers and you'll know what I'm talking about.
Cry Blood, Apache is an okay but slow moving film, typical of the drive-in western in that it's short on plot and long on pessimism and sadism, this time with an ending that just doesn't ring true.
It's strengths include good location photography, Jody McCrea's immense likability as an actor and the repulsiveness of villains Tessier and Starrett, who incidentally played the only American to date ever killed by Rambo!
Joel McCrea makes a cameo appearance as the older version of his son Jody but I think he should have taken a cue from co-star Randolph Scott and retired after the success of Ride The High Country.
