Posts from Robbie in thread „Spooky John Wayne Scenes“

    Hi Todd


    That is a good scene its very disturbing, tense and well acted.


    One other scene in this mould thats worth mentioning is the scene in Red River when Duke is reading at Harry Carey funeral and a cloud appears in the background as a metaphor for the violence that is about to take place, in addition to this the music starts to get grim, a great scene.

    Hi All


    This is a rather difficult question as John Wayne never made any horror movies, but what I would like to know is what scene from any of his movies do you feel was quite unnerving, dark, and grim etc.


    On another note do you feel there is a film in particular that fits this criteria that would make an ideal movie to watch on Halloween night.


    Here is my nomination: 'The Cowboys'.


    The appearance of Derns gang in the distance 2/3 of the way through the movie. The music gets very grim and Duke looks at the gang after being told who they are by one of the Cowboys and we can see the look of anguish and uneasiness in his eyes. This all sets up very nicely for Derns assault which lives up to the excellent build up.
