After starring in the now-legendary trilogy of spaghetti Westerns for Italian director Sergio Leone, Clint Eastwood became a box-office star and imported the style of those classic shoot-'em-ups for this 1967 Western directed by Ted Post, with whom Eastwood had worked during their days on the television series Rawhide. Eastwood plays an innocent rancher who is mistaken for a cattle rustler and sentenced to hang by an angry mob. When he is saved from the noose by a passing lawman, he embarks on a renegade campaign of vengeance against the men who attempted to lynch him. Hang 'Em High offers a number of memorable moments and stylistic flourishes, and features a superb supporting cast of Western veterans, including Ben Johnson, Ed Begley, Pat Hingle, Dennis Hopper, Bruce Dern, L.Q. Jones, and the "Skipper" himself, Alan Hale Jr. Made just three years before Dirty Harry, the film marked a turning point for Eastwood, who would soon move into a prolific period of contemporary thrillers. --Jeff Shannon
Description:
They riddled him with bullets. They strung him up. They left him to die. But they made two fatal mistakes: they hanged the wrong man...and they didn't finish the job. In his first American-made western, Clint Eastwood indelibly carves his niche as the quintessential tough guycool-headed, iron-willed and unrelenting in his pursuit of revenge. Oklahoma, 1873. Jed Cooper (Eastwood), mistaken for a rustler and killer, is lynched on the spot by crooked lawman Captain Wilson (Ed Begley) and a rampaging band of vigilantes. But as Wilson and his gang flee the scene, there's one very important detail they've overlooked: Cooper is still alive! Out for justiceand vengeanceCooper takes on the job of deputy marshal...and, one by one, tracks down the nine men who "done him wrong."

- Best Eastwood Western
Hang 'em High is the best Eastwood Western in my opinion. He get's revenage on his enemies one by one. After being hanged and left for dead he comes back and each one of the men that was involved in his hanging get picked off one by one. If you have not seen this movie then you are missing out on a good one. The story line is great and of course Clint Eastwood never fails to give us his best.

- Hang 'Em High
the vhs "Hang 'Em High" was not in good condition. After the beginning there was no picture. Very dissapointed. It did'nt even rate 1 star. The company was fair in returning my money.
Rating: - Classic Clint Eastwood
Interesting story, the plot line isn't the usual build up and then kapow! this one has lots of twists and turns.
If you like The Outlaw Josey Wales you'll probably like this one.
I wish you can choose different languages though (I'm learning French, German, Spanish and Italian at the moment and would love to watch this in another language as well) and subtitles to choose from would be wonderful!
Rating: - DVD purchase
product received was as advertised, and in great condition.Would buy from this vendor again.
