Apr 11, 1974 · Featured review. 6/10. Unusually grim tragic-comic western. From a time when the western was trying to appeal to a younger audience by making movies that featured boy protagonists rather than men, ("The Culpepper Cattle Company", "The Cowboys" and here, "The Spikes Gang").

The Spikes Gang was filmed in Tabernas, Almeria, and Andalucia, in Spain. The production style of director Richard Fleischer received generally favorable reviews. [2] " It was only the second matchup for the director and Marvin and the actor gives a seething, unpredictable performance as the untrustworthy Harry Spikes.
The Spikes Gang is a fast paced movie and seems to play upon the anonymity of three teenagers, ill-prepared for a brutal and unforgiving way of life. The one drawback to the pace is that it does not give a good sense for the passage of time, but is effective in emphasizing the few sparks in mundane lives.
Genre: Western. Rating: 6 (from 1 vote) Review: Three teenage friends, Will ( Gary Grimes ), Les ( Ron Howard) and Tod ( Charles Martin Smith) are out in the countryside near their homes one day when they stumble upon a body lying in the undergrowth.
