PlotCast* Tim Holt as Tim Holt * Joan Dixon as Gail Martin * Richard Martin as Chito Rafferty * Ross Elliott as Dave Collins * John Dehner as Turk Thorne * Robert J. Wilke as Stoney ReceptionAccording to film critic Tom Stempel: 'Hot Lead' was one Holt written by William Lively. Unlike Houston and Repp, he had no feel for the Tim-Chito relationship. At the end of the film they ride off arguing, something Tim and Chito never did. The film was directed by Stuart Gilmore, one of only six features he directed. He soon realized he was a better editor than director and had a long career as a film editor.
