I am not a historian, but I am smart enough to know that Seminole wars occurred in Florida - I guess South Florida - or at worst a bit in Oklahoma, but certainly not so far west...Why not Apache warriors in Connecticut?

Seminole Uprising is directed by Earl Bellamy and is adapted by Robert E. Kent from Curt Brandon's novel, Bugle's Wake.

Cavalry lieutenant Can Ellott , George Montgomery , is assigned by his commanding Officer to execute a dangerous mission, to detain the rebellious Indian Chief Black Cat , Steven Ritch , has escaped from his Florida reservation and carried out an upheaval against White men .Then Black Cat and other assailant Indians take Hannah : Karin Booth , Colonel's daughter .

William Fawcett narrates a story of Indian fighting in Texas. Black Cat is the head Indian Honcho, and Montegomery is the guy assigned to bring him in for trial.

"Seminole Rising" was your standard B western movie typically shown prior to the A feature as was standard in theaters prior to the 1960s. These were low budget movies that allowed small name actors to gain experience and audience exposure.

It wasn't the best western I've ever seen but definitely not the worst. After reading the last review I decided to watch it myself.

Don't tune into this one expecting to see alligators, Everglades and colorfully garbed Indians. Here, for some reason, the Seminoles are in TEXAS, riding the plains, living in Teepees and wrecking havoc.

Leave it to romance to further bring down a cowboy movie. I'm a sucker, though, for color western landscape cinematography, so, for me, THAT was a positive about this film.

This western has a small budget look and the familiar plot of the U.S.
