The Sacketts and The Shadow Riders
Two good westerns with Tom Selleck! Also both have Sam Elliott, Jeff Osterhage, and Ben Johnson. The Sacketts first aired, in a two-parter, May 15-16,1979. The Shadow Riders first aired Sept 28,1982. Both movies were based on books by Louis L'Amour. Check them out on DVD.

Just bought a new DVD of, "The Sacketts"! Had it at the local "Fred Meyer" for $9.99! A great western and Tom Selleck, great way to spend the day!

I have the Shadow Riders, but not the Sacketts, which also stars the incomparable Ben Johnson. Probably one of the best cowboy actors of all time.

Re: The Sacketts and The Shadow Riders
Just watching "The Shadow Riders" again on Encore's Western channel! It's just one of those movies, that makes me feel good! I don't know if it's been mentioned in the forum, but Jacqueline Ray, Tom Selleck's first wife, is one of the girls who has been kidnapped by the ex-reb's in this movie!

Re: The Sacketts and The Shadow Riders
Was hoping The Sacketts & Shadow Riders would be remastered for DVD purchase. Did this happen in the USA.

Re: The Sacketts and The Shadow Riders
Both are available on DVD in the US via Amazon. They’re quite inexpensive as well, $6-8 each, currently.terryfromkerry wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 11:53 pm Was hoping The Sacketts & Shadow Riders would be remastered for DVD purchase. Did this happen in the USA.
