Inspired by true events, The Night They Came Home chronicles the ruthless exploits of the Rufus Buck Gang, a group of outlaws who clashed with the Indian Territory of Middle America at the tail end of the 19th century. The combined force of local lawmen and Indian police aim to take down a coldhearted band of fugitives with vengeance on their minds.

In other words, it's literally a modern retelling of 1915's Birth of a Nation, a film that inaugurated the depiction of Black men as criminal, violent, and sexually deviant, but without meaning to be.

Everything about this shoddily made Western reeks of amateurish filmmaking. It's also a terrible depiction of a half-Black/half-Native American gang on a racist rampage against white people, with horribly acted scenes pretending to be historically true.

A Western captured with dimension-deprived scope that suggests little thought was put into or budget aimed toward the sort of visual language we usually attribute to the genre.

With it's stellar cast, agile direction and a story based on real events, the film presents itself as a cinematographic journey set for the lovers of westerns and film in general. [Full review in Spanish]

The story at times seemed interesting and then, not. Several of the scenes looked and sounded like the actors and actresses were told to know their characters and lines in one take, having been given the script moments beforehand. At times, it was just not believable.
