The Cherokee Kid

1996 · 91 min

A goofy, good-natured western comedy with slapstick gags, a revenge plot, and a warm family-friendly vibe.

Tagline
In the old west, you had to be real hard, real tough or real crazy... He was all three.
Overview
Isaih Turner didn’t want to be a hero-all he wanted was revenge. Orphaned when both his parents were cruelly murdered by the wealthy and powerful Cyrus Bloomington, the young Isaiah grew up with one air in mind: to find the man who killed his folks and take him down.
