Ride with the Devil - Official Trailer [1999]

Jake Roedel and Jack Bull Chiles are friends in Missouri when the Civil War starts. Women and Blacks have few rights. Jack Bull's dad is killed by Union soldiers, so the young men join the Bushwhackers, irregulars loyal to the South. One is a Black man, Daniel Holt, beholden to the man who bought his freedom. They skirmish then spend long hours hiding. Sue Lee, a young widow, brings them food. She and Jack Bull become lovers, and when he's grievously wounded, Jake escorts her south to a safe farm. The Bushwhackers, led by men set on revenge, make a raid into Kansas. At 19, Jake is ill at ease with war. As his friends die one after another, he must decide where honor lies.

I worked on this film in locations and doing a stunt. Funny to see my butt in the air pulling that guy out of that burning building. Shouldn't I have gotten a sag card for that? Oh well....it was a Grand experience.

[cashJOHNNYcash17]

one of the most under rated movies of all time

[VanGTO49]

A movie that cost 30 million to make...grossed $600,000. Ouch

[Jan H.]

I know another under rated movie: Triangle

A REALLY good horror film... more psycho than brutal... intricate like M. Night Shyamalan's movies!

You definetely should check this out. :-)

RIGHT ON!

Every role was played perfectly from "Pitt mackeson" to "Jack bull" especially "holt" which was my favorite character in the movie who played the most powerful role imo. This movie never gets old, very well made.

[Brandon Mckenna]

Read "Woe to Live On" by Daniel Woodrell, the novel this film is based on.  It's a masterpiece!

[Brad Brassman]

Well said sir. Recently discovered documents in Britain also reveal that many of the free slaves that fled to the north were sold to the British, which puts an entirely different slant on Northern hypocrisy.

[AUG351]

A great film that tells the true story of the Civil War or the "Second War of Indepenence" or "War of Northern Agression". History is always written by the victor. They teach kids Confederates fought for slavery, but non of that is the truth. If you actually read anything about it than you'll find out that the South fought for their rights against an opressive government and for their homes and families. The great Southern men who lost their lives should never be forgotten.
