Plot

A drifter named Jubal Troop, found badly injured, is rescued by a kindhearted rancher named Shep. Shep offers Jubal a job on his expansive cattle ranch, where he quickly proves his worth, much to the dismay of Pinky, a surly and jealous cowhand. As Jubal becomes more integrated into ranch life, Shep's flirtatious young wife, Mae, becomes enamored with him, creating tension and rivalry within the group. Pinky, whose ambitions and desires intensify, begins to manipulate situations to isolate Jubal and sow discord among the ranch workers.

Meanwhile, Jubal finds an ally and confidant in Naomi, a pious woman who offers him guidance and understanding. As the relationships between these characters grow more strained and complex, underlying resentments and unspoken secrets threaten to erupt into violence. The escalating drama hints at a deeper exploration of loyalty, betrayal, and redemption, setting the stage for fateful confrontations and dramatic resolutions.

Physical Media Reviews

  • A thoroughly enjoyable and overlooked western, 'Jubal' excels with a strong cast and impressive audio on Blu-ray, despite lacking in supplements. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
