_**Rory Calhoun, DeForest Kelley and John Russell clash with Apaches at a way station**_

A stagecoach hauling honest citizens mixed with a few dubious people travels through the Southwest wilderness during an Apache uprising with everything culminating at a way station. Rory Calhoun, Lon Chaney Jr. and Corinne Calvet are the protagonists while John Russell, DeForest Kelley and Gene Evans play the outlaws  

"Apache Uprising" (1965) is an A.C. Lyles Western, who produced over a dozen ‘B’ Westerns in the mid-60s. These flicks were shot in about 12 days, give or take, using past-their-prime actors mixed with a couple up-and-comers. They were shot on town sets with a few sequences done in the nearby wilderness of SoCal. The teams Lyles gathered always knew what they were doing and did it competently and efficiently, albeit with little artistic merit and just a notch above a TV movie. 

This one has elements of “Stagecoach” (1939), “Hangman’s Knot” (1952) and “Black Spurs” (1965) with Rory making for a tall, dark Western protagonist; he should’ve been more popular. While it isn’t as good as his previous “Black Spurs,” it’s still a solid traditional Western with fleshed-out characters and a well-written story, albeit a tad complicated. 

Kelley, who would go on to fame with Star Trek the next year, is entertaining as an irascible psycho while the towering  John Russell is even more grim as the scarred ringleader.

On the female front, Corinne Calvet was almost 40 during shooting and still alluring. I liked the bit about her unjustly being an outcast purely through gossip/slander (or perhaps I should say impurely).
 
The movie runs 1 hour, 30 minutes, and was shot at Vasquez Rocks, just north of Hollywood in the high country east of Santa Clarita, with studio stuff done at Paramount Studios and some stock footage from Arizona.
