Ten legendary Western stars are reunited in this action-packed tale of brothers at odds-one a decorated soldier and reluctant hero, the other a gambler who keeps company with card sharks and corrupt women-in a small mining town torn apart by civil war. When they fall for the same woman, the brothers become divided; and one man is left to face a band of ruthless killers on his own. A tribute to the great American Western, Hell to Pay is a gritty and mesmerizing tale of love, honor, duty, treachery and betrayal.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was essentially a 'Western Expendables' before that was a thing—James Drury (The Virginian) and Buck Taylor (Gunsmoke) hadn't shared a set in decades.
Released straight to DVD during Western's near-death era, it's a time capsule of actors working for scale because they loved the genre that made them.
