Grayeagle is a Western set on the frontier, where a young Cheyenne warrior of that name carries off Beth, the daughter of the trapper John Colter. Colter sets out after them, joined by his old friend Standing Bear and, later, by another trapper, Willis, who offers to guide the party toward the Cheyenne village where the young man is believed to have taken the girl. Grayeagle's intentions are not what the pursuit assumes; he has brought Beth to meet the tribe's elderly chief for a reason of his own.
Charles B. Pierce directed and wrote the film and produced it through his own company, following The Town That Dreaded Sundown the previous year and before Sacred Ground. Ben Johnson plays Colter, with Lana Wood as Beth and Alex Cord as the warrior; Iron Eyes Cody appears as Standing Bear, Jack Elam as Willis and Paul Fix as Running Wolf.
Released in late 1977 and running just over an hour and three quarters, the film found a modest audience. On IMDb it holds a rating of 5.6 from 771 votes, and on TMDB a rating of 5.9 from 16 votes, placing it among the lower-regarded entries in Pierce's filmography.
