Scenes from the Morgue 
The William Castle Blogathon :: Treachery Sends Apache Hordes on Vengeance Warpath! (February, 1954)
Posted in 1950-1959, Movie Ads with tags Columbia Pictures, Edward Nassour, For Men Only, Kathleen Hughes, Lippert Pictures, Margaret Field, Melodrama, Paul Henreid, Robert Sherman, Russell Johnson, Sam Katzman, Social Commentary, The Conquest of Cochise, The Tall Lie, The William Castle Blogathon, Thriller, Vera Miles, Westerns, William Castle on July 30, 2013 by WB KelsoBack out west we go for some more over-saturated Technicolor misadventures in Castle’s The Conquest of Cochise. 3D was already out and Cinemascope was in. (See it in all its Vast Vision Glory!) However, from the reviews I’ve read about this tale of land swindles and broken treaties the only thing that stuck was the torture scenes in the last reel, meaning Castle was already well on his way toward the next phase of his cinematic career.
This post is part of Goregirl’s Dungeon and The Last Drive-In’s The William Castle Blogathan, a week long tribute to the King of Schlock. Follow the linkage, Boils & Ghouls. It’s gonna be a great week. And stick around, as we’ll be showcasing Castle’s film career from its fairly normal beginnings through it psychotronic glory days. Stay tuned!
