Manitou’s Canoe

Returning to the wildly absurd frontier, Manitou’s Canoe is a fast-paced comedy Western that reunites Apache chief Abahachi and his white blood brother Ranger in another outrageous adventure for peace and justice. Just as the duo believes they’ve brought balance to the Wild West, a new and ambitious gang rises to cause chaos, targeting them with an elaborate trap. Their goal: to steal the legendary and mystical “Canoe of Manitou.” Outsmarted and outgunned, Abahachi and Ranger find unexpected help from Dimitri the Greek and his clever new employee, Mary. What begins as a daring rescue soon uncovers a much larger conspiracy, launching the heroes into a brand-new quest filled with slapstick humor, parody, and over-the-top Western mayhem.
