The Scalphunters (1968)

A fur trapper is robbed of all his furs by a group of Kiowa, receiving a slave in exchange for them. He then tries to get his furs back, going through some unexpected incidents in the process.

Fairly intelligent western with a comical vein to it. IMDB points out that all the weapons used in the film were not used until after the Civil War, a detail which rules out strict realism. But there is enough verisimilitude to the proceedings.

Rating: 61
