Not the easiest movie to watch and the lead characters are despicable
This is not your average western. In fact, most of the main characters are all worthless and your greatest enjoyment comes from watching the others manage to make them pay for their actions. But it's got a fair plot and the actors really do their job making you hate them. An interesting piece of trivia is that, though she's barely visible and plays a boy, Leif Garrett's sister (Dawn Lyn, at a very young age) is in the movie at the beginning. Her father and mother (and Leif's) play (respectively) one of the lead characters (a real creep) and the woman he murders, taking the term "family movie" to an entirely new level.

It's exactly what you think: Mediocre B Movie
"Cry Blood Apache" is a low-budget, straightforward B Movie revenge Western that doesn't have a lot to say for itself. It is also co-produced by its star Jody McRea (Joel McCrea's son) and directed by Jack Starrett, who plays a villain called "The Deacon." The film benefits from fairly good acting (except for that of Jody McRea, who is as generic as a 1940s B movie good guy). It also features a couple of unusual, non-bloody executions. "Cry Blood Apache" suffers, however, from a slow-developing story, poor fight choreography, and a script that falls apart just before the first arrow flies. Jody's dad, Joel, appears briefly as he sits on his horse, unwilling to do anything more than watch this mediocre film play out.

Curiously satisfying
A timeless classic, albeit without much of a plot. Kudos and huge points for the most inventive ways to punish the unconcerned ignorant mysogynist without a lot of bloodshed. If only in our imaginations thru this film... Fortunately, sister releases brother to the next world before it's over, so he won't ever have to live with nightmare memories of his handiwork. All about the liabilities of culture clash.

Good Service
Wasn't sure what to expect of movie. Quality of picture was poor & wasn't much of a story line. Service from Amazon was exactly as promised & right on time.

Lousy movie
If there were a 1/2 star I would even rate it that way. The movie had no plot. The voices were delayed so bad that the movie was over and the characters were still having a dialogue. I had to watch it for an online class and was greatly disappointed because I could not get any vital information from the movie.

Disappointed
I too bought this because Joel McCrea's name is associated with it. Very disappointing, not what I thought it would be, the main character is played by Joel McCrea's son JODY McCREA with about 2 x 30 sec of JOEL McCREA (at a ripe old age) at the beginning and the end of the film. The story is pretty weak and predictable, the dialogue could have been written by anyone and the acting was fairly mediochre NOT A GOOD CHOICE AT ALL.

Deceptive rubbish
I bought this becuse Joel McCrae's name is assiciated with it. However, he is only seen at the very beginning and the end and the rest is average and mundane. It is uninteresting and dull. I wasted my money and McCrae's name was used to deceive people into buying this.

Where was Joel Mcrea?
Unfortunately Joel Mcrea is more noticeable on the front cover or the DVD than he is in the film. This was a vehicle for Mcrea's son, Jody, and Joel just lent his name to it. I am a fan of Mcrea senior but Mcrea junior just does not cut it, at least not in this movie.
