When the Texas Plains Ran With Blood and Black Gold!

George Hanson (Sterling Hayden, The Killing) is an honest, hard-working whaler, who returns to his Texas hometown after 20 years at sea. Hearing the tragic news of his fathers death two days earlier, George finds little support from the local sheriff (Tyler McVey). Investigating on his own, George uncovers an evil conspiracy that involves an oil speculator (Sebastian Cabot, Family Affair) who had his father killed over a land sale gone wrong. Rich with tension and atmosphere, directed by genre veteran Joseph H. Lewis (Gun Crazy, The Big Combo), Terror in a Texas Town is a captivating pulp-Western thriller, where revenge is the name of the game.
