Avenging Angel is a 2007 American TV Western film directed by David S. Cass Sr. and starring Kevin Sorbo.

A preacher (Kevin Sorbo) witnesses his family and a group of refugees seeking shelter in his church murdered by a gang of ruthless outlaws led by Colonel Cusack (Wings Hauser).

When he steps in to defend a woman in a saloon, the bad guy and his two friends (who happen to be allied with The Colonel), give him a beating and toss him into the street.

The film scored a 2.6 household rating, making it the highest-rated ad supported cable movie for the day.

A shame this sort of story has been told many times before and done better...The one thing this movie has going for it is Sorbo does turn in a decent performance and he is the only reason Avenging Angel is worth watching, although I might be pushing the envelope with that endorsement.
