Elliott Marston

Elliot Marston is the main antagonist of the 1990 western-adventure film Quigley Down Under.

He is an Australian ranch owner who harbors a racist vendetta against Aboriginal Australians and strives to wipe them all out. He is the archenemy of Matthew Quigley.

Marston hires an American cowboy named Matthew Quigley to wipe out all Aboriginal Australians and informs him that he could assist him in his campaign with his sharp-shooting skills. Quigley, knowing Marston's true intentions, turns down the offer and throws Marston out of his own house twice. However, Marston's goons knock Quigley and Cora unconscious and send them off to be stranded in the outback with no chance of survival. Later, Quigley and Cora save an Aboriginal tribe from Marston's henchmen and Quigley manages to kill several, but one of them escapes upon spotting Cora.

Quigley and Cora kill some more of Marston's men (who drove several natives off a cliff) and save an Aboriginal baby. Some of Marston's men recognize Quigley in a town and attack him. Quigley kills the henchmen, but spares one, whom he sends to Marston to inform that he's coming for him. Marston then prepares his men to kill Quigley after finding out.

Eventually, when Quigley is captured, he engages in a quick draw gun shooting duel with Marston. Marston makes his first move, but is shot and killed by Quigley, who then kills Marston's remaining lackeys.
