Filmmaker Oliver Drake, known for three decades as director of B-movie westerns (Renegades of the Rio Grande), later turned his attention to exploitation films such as The Mummy and the Curse of the Jackals (1969) and this one, a "dirty" western that imagines actual Civil War-era Confederate terrorist group Quantrill's Raiders not as the enemy of abolitionists but as rapists and purveyors of forced prostitution. With Richard Smedley from The Suckers and Chuck Alford (Voodoo Heartbeat) among a cast of mostly unknowns.
