    • Trivia
      Filmed in 3-D (though released in 2-D) by director Andre De Toth, despite the fact that De Toth only had one eye and thus couldn't see in 3-D.
    • Goofs
      When Randolph rides into Twin Forks he is wearing a black hat and outfit and only has his saddle bags, bedroll and some supplies. When he goes asking questions he has a beige hat with a rolled brim and new outfit. Then when Randolph meets the doctor's daughter to go to church he has a totally different Stetson and is wearing a full suit with a vest. It's unlikely he could have all those clothes in his saddle bags but there is no way he could or would have been packing the two extra hats.

    Modest but estimable western

    Born Hungarian André De Toth directed seven B series western between years 1951 and 1955 (B series films in Europe means that it were made with few money and in a short time). This Bounty Hunter was one of them. It is a solid, without ups and downs, and very estimable western. This modest film deserves all the respect, admiration and gratitude possibles. An even in our times, when toughness is missing in service of computers special effects. The film has got craft agility, is very well build and adequately played by specialist stony face Randolph Scott (Boetticher's lonesome rider). We meet efficacious Ernest Borgnine in a supporting role. Western lovers will enjoy this film.
