Bounty hunter Ben Brigade (Randolph Scott, Comanche Station) is a man of action and honour. He ventures to California with prisoner Billy John (James Best, Coltrane from The Dukes of Hazzard), but has a mind to use him to lure an even bigger fish – Billy John’s evil brother Frank (Western legend Lee Van Cleef, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly). But at a frontier post the two find themselves in the middle of a Native American assault and are joined by the alluring Widow Lane (Karen Steele, Decision at Sundown) who decides to accompany them on their perilous journey to Santa Cruz.

In the western "Ride Lonesome", it is already apparent that the characters in the Wayne-esque style were not that interesting and it was necessary to come up with something more interesting in the genre. This western has pleasantly dirty and sweaty guys, as well as one beautiful woman, which works excellently just from this aspect. However, it also has a story that is interesting and eventually leads to some surprises.
