WATCHING

A fictional "Wild" Bill Hicock & Crazy Horse are on a hunt to kill a monster of a mythical WHITE BUFFALO.

It's like Moby Dick in the old west. It's a historical fiction western monster movie. Quite the hybrid.

TRIVIA: In this film, Wild Bill Hickok often wears dark glasses. There is a factual basis to this characterization. In 1876, Hickok was diagnosed by a doctor in Kansas City, Missouri, with glaucoma and "ophthalmia." Actually, he was probably afflicted with trachoma, a common vision disorder of the time.

The film also correctly shows the way the historical Wild Bill carried his revolvers, butt-forward in a belt or sash without any holsters.
