“Let me guess – you’re an innocent man?” “Damn right, I am.” Cineverse has debuted an official trailer for a western film titled Cottonmouth, a gritty revenge thriller set back in 1895 in Oklahoma. This film is sort of a western re-imaging of the classic The Count of Monte Cristo story from Dumas, inspired by it, but also with its own clever twists in a classic western setting. In 1895 Oklahoma, love and loyalty turn deadly when a groom-to-be is betrayed, imprisoned, and reborn as an outlaw bent on revenge. When Ed Dantes is framed and condemned to the tortures of a territorial prison in 1895, he must learn the ways of the outlaw to escape and exact his revenge on Billy Dunn. Directed by Brock Harris, this rugged frontier saga of passion, power, and payback reminds us that every bullet carries the weight of a broken heart. Starring Martin Sensmeier as Ed, Alyssa Wapanatâhk as Sophia, Jonathan Sadowski, Eric Nelsen, Jonathan Lipnicki, with Ron Perlman and Esai Morales. Have to say – this looks way better than it should! Perhaps reusing this story and spinning it as as western was a good idea. Out on VOD in November – if anyone wants to catch it.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Brock Harris’ western film Cottonmouth, direct from YouTube:

“Love turns to blood. Justice turns to revenge.” Set in Indian territory, back in 1895. Ed Dantes (Martin Sensmeier) rides to the town of Ingalls, Oklahoma on the eve of his wedding. Ed brings his saddle chum Frank (Jonathan Sadowski) to witness the ceremony but they will soon become enemies when a rivalry develops over Ed’s fiancé, saloon singer Sophia. To make matters worse, the saloon is neighbored by the Dunn Inn, owned by Billy Dunn (Eric Nelsen). Dunn has his eyes set on Sophia and her mother’s saloon, too. Ed must learn the ways of the outlaw to enact his revenge. Cottonmouth is directed by American writer / filmmaker Brock Harris, director of the films Wild Game and Dance Dads previously, plus a few other tiny films. The screenplay is written by Jared Bonner and Brock Harris. Produced by Talia Bella and Randy Wayne. This initially premiered at the 2025 Mammoth Film Festival earlier this year. Cineverse will debut Harris’ Cottonmouth film direct-to-VOD starting November 4th, 2025 this fall. Anyone want to watch?
