The once peaceful and booming Yellowstone City has fallen on hard times, but when a local prospector strikes gold, things seem to be turning around. Any hope is soon shattered when the prospector is found dead and the Sheriff quickly arrests a mysterious newcomer. But nothing is so simple in this sleepy western town, and more than a few of the locals have secrets to keep and reasons to kill. As the brutal murders continue, pitting neighbor against neighbor, Yellowstone City goes down a bloody path to a final showdown that not all will survive.

“Murder at Yellowstone City” strands an excellent cast in a slow-paced story with a muted tone, too far removed from its pulpy inspirations.

There are many moments in Murder at Yellowstone City that will strike you with either affectionate familiarity or, more likely, eye-rolling embarrassment.

Director Richard Gray’s well-crafted and handsomely mounted indie is as much a solidly constructed mystery as it is it a conventionally satisfying oater, with much to recommend to fans of either genre who rarely get to sample such a mix.

Murder is neither here nor there; not a powerful morality tale, and not much of an exploitation picture.

Something in this film harkens back to the days of "High Noon" and "Stagecoach." It isn't a high quality product but it does have appeal.

Great movie! If you love the slow burn of a western this has it!

3.5 stars; A good old-styled Western with a couple of twists. If you simply like murder mysteries, you will like this movie as well. My only deductions came from: 1) there were too many extensive violent gunfights that didn't really add that much to the story, and 2) the gunfights and extraneous dialogue made the movie too long—over 2 hours. However, I did enjoy this unique film.

A movie that takes a bit to long for the story to really get going, but once the twist is revealed its downright awesome and left a memorable experience.

Whilst the movie received poor ratings both from Rotten Tomatoes and the viewers, I did feel that they were perhaps being a bit harsh on the producers and actors, as to my mind it may not go down as a memorable one however I still found it entertaining as a Western movie.

It's just a horrible movie. Unnecessary in all respects. Avoid it like the plague. How this got funded? Why?

This is literally the worst western, or even movie I’ve ever seen! It made absolutely no sense and was a total waste of time. Anyone who liked this movie must be related to the cast, or director.
