action

The unscrupulous adventurer Ted Shore was able, with the help of the outlaw El Bicho and his people, to take possession of almost all the gold mines in an area in New Mexico. The old gold digger Sam, who lives with his daughter Susan and has so far been able to bow to the pressure of Ted, hires a young gunslinger, Billy Walsh. Since he sees it as hopeless to deal with the numerous opponents alone, Billy resorted to a trick. He offers El Bicho and Ted a part of the mine each at a good price - it is almost inevitable that the two bandit groups will fight. As a result, both groups will soon no longer exist. Then Billy discovers a body in the Sam mine; it is the co-owner who has been missing for some time. Sam, who murdered him, now tries to do the same with Billy, but the dynamite that is supposed to kill him kills him.

criticism

For the lexicon of international films , the work is a “moderately exciting European Western series aimed at effects.” Christian Keßler also has a similar opinion and calls it “tolerable, hard Western food, without high nutritional value”. And Segnalazionic Cinematografiche stated that the film “closely follows the well-known genre motifs without enriching them with any new ideas.” Even the Protestant film observer does not think much of the film: “Colored Italian wide-screen western, whose main feature is the lack of any intellectual effort on the part of the authors and which, with its extensive brawls, is at best a cinematic lesson for freestyle wrestlers. "

Remarks

The box-office result in Italy was a below-average 117 million lire .
