Interesting facts

Shot in the Frontier is a 1954 short subject directed by Jules White starring American slapstick comedy team The Three Stooges. It is the 157th entry in the series released by Columbia Pictures starring the comedians, who released 190 shorts for the studio between 1934 and 1959.

Production notes

Shot in the Frontier was filmed on October 26–28, 1953, nearly one year prior to its release. It is a parody of the 1952 Stanley Kramer Western High Noon.

In 1954, two shorts were released with entirely new footage: Income Tax Sappy and Shot in the Frontier. In both productions, Shemp Howard did not slick down his long hair due to his recent commencement of hair dyeing, which initially precluded the use of pomade.
