The American Civil War is a turbulent time, and Ride with the Devil follows four men across the border as they make their way from Kansas to Missouri. It is an eccentric, well-acted, and visually impressive film. While it may not be the best movie of the genre, it's still worth seeing, if only to be amused. The video by Daniel Woodrell was published in 1987 and was adapted into a film on November 1, 1999 by Pocket videos..
