Curiosità

One Foot in Hell is a 1960 American Western and CinemaScope film starring Alan Ladd, Don Murray and Dan O'Herlihy, directed by James B. Clark and co-written by Sydney Boehm and Aaron Spelling from a story by Spelling.

Production

The film was known as Gunslinger or The Gunslingers.

The budget was over $1 million and Ladd got 10% of the profits.

Filming was interrupted when the Screen Actors Guild went on strike during the shoot on March 7, 1960, continuing until April. Filming resumed on April 11, 1960. Alan Ladd injured his hand while working at his ranch during the lay-off in the March–April 1960 Screen Actors Guild strike against Hollywood studios, but was well enough to resume filming.

Actress Dolores Michaels said to famous gossip columnist Hedda Hopper in the local major daily newspaper, the 'Los Angeles Times' in June 1960, that "Playing westerns aren't included among the things I'll settle for on screen, although the part of Julie in this picture is better than most. She's a bad girl who goes good and has a highly dramatic moment with a gun at the end.
