Western As one of the founders of the town of Lincoln, John Chisum is increasingly worried as Lawrence Murphy moves in on the local stores, bank and land by questionable means. Chisum and fellow honest ranch owner Henry Tunstall try and use the law, but Murphy owns that too. Confrontation threatens and Tunstall's man Billy Bonney is not slow to get involved.

	Media	Author	Review
		Tony Sloman Radio Times	"A fine supporting cast of home-on-the-range hombres that includes Ben Johnson, Bruce Cabot and Richard Jaeckel - faces that should lend credibility to any western - will help take your mind off the rambling plot (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Time Out	"Enjoy veteran William Clothier's superb cinematography and wait for the next re-run of Peckinpah's version in 'Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid'."
