Devil's Canyon (1953)

Directed by Alfred L. Werker
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

An ex-Marshall is sent to the Arizona penitentiary for gunfighting. He meets the brother of a man he killed and an ex-girlfriend. He's out for revenge and they are both after the girl. A botched breakout turns into a riot, but a single Gatling gun sends everyone back to their cells. Virginia Mayo is good as the only woman in a prison of 500. Shot in Technicolor and "Natural Vision" 3-D, neither of which add much to the film, which is drab and boring despite the plot.
