In 1880, a renegade Chiricahua war chief named Ulzana (Creator/JoaquinMartinez) orchestrates a daring escape from [[TheRez San Carlos]] and begins a RoaringRampageOfRevenge against the European-American settlers who stole his people's land.

''Ulzana's Raid'' is a 1972 American [[TheWestern Western]] film directed by Creator/RobertAldrich and starring Creator/BurtLancaster and Creator/BruceDavison.
