An elderly Chinese man routs evil in a Western frontier town by setting up his circus for the townspeople. The performers affect each of the circus’ visitors in a different way, and in the end the unscrupulous citizens who dominate the town repent. Under the direction of George Pal, Tony Randall plays eight different characters in the movie, with the help of Oscar -winning special visual effects and make-up that earned William Tuttle a special Honorary Award for his work on this cult classic.
