High Plains Drifter

This western is the second movie Clint Eastwood ever directed, and is pretty awesome. Basically the plot (without giving too much away) involves Eastwood's character riding out of mist into the town of Lago, where some guys attack him so he kills them and rapes an uninvolved woman. Then the townspeople decide they need his help since three dudes they framed are returning to town for revenge. I really can't say much more about this without giving away major spoilers, but it's super creepy in a great sort of way, if you can get past the main character raping women through the whole movie.

RATING: 76%

It's especially fun when rape turns into <3LOVE<3.

BOO on Westerns. I'd rather watch Wedding Crashers.
