Two mistakes... one major

First - there four killers, not three. The three were waiting for their leader to arrive. Four went to town, all to be killed by the sheriff.

Second - you severely missread my post. Else you wouldn't say I didn't care for it. I said I felt ill and depressed - that is different, and might mean the film had the intended effect.

Being a Western always puts a movie at a disadvantage, as the genre is too particular, to restrictive, but High Noon pushes the envelop, and I like that. It is far more human than the majority of "mechanicsl" Westerns. There is a glimps of humanity in the main hero for sure, and actually in the passive cowards as well.

By comparisson the Rio Bravo is far more cliche driven, with ALL characters being just wooden cutouts with no iterest at all.

All in all, there have been some Westerns I didn't mind watching, but as the general genre that is not my cup of tea. But last night the TMC had the Western night, so I joined for a refresher course. I have seen these before, but still enjoyed the night.
