Call Her Savage

The film begins with an Indian attack on a train, during which they kill all the passengers. One of the few survivors, an old man named Mort, blames Texan Silas Jennings for the incident - he says that this is God's punishment for the sins of Silas, who lives with a woman out of wedlock. After Mort calls Silas's mistress a whore and prophesies that his descendants down to the fourth generation will pay for the adultery, the Texan interrupts the old man's speech by stepping on his throat, thus killing him. Eighteen years pass. Silas' daughter, a young woman named Ruth, marries Peter Springer.
