Quick Answer

Programmer's Pick
The Ramrodder serves up wild West melodrama with a distinctly adult twist—think six-shooters, sex, and scandal in equal measure. Between the steamy encounters and the brutal frontier justice, this is one Western that never holsters its exploitation credentials.

Expect all the dusty action of a Western spiced up with the nudity and sexual content of late-60s erotic cinema.
A brutal crime and its aftermath set off a chain of accusations, retaliations, and rough justice between settlers and Native Americans.
With its X rating and softcore sequences, this is frontier drama made for the grindhouse crowd, not the Saturday matinee.
