action

Jerry King comes to the town of Templeton in search of his brother Regan's murderer. There he finds the city ruled by a gang whose two leaders are sure to include the wanted one. After a few deals in which Leader Rod excels, it's up to Jerry to speed things up. After a duel, Rod is in the process of passing on his knowledge of the murder to Jerry when he is shot dead by the real leader of the bandits, Gringo. He directs all of the gang's operations and is also responsible for Regan's murder. In another duel, Gringo draws the short straw against Jerry, who has already broken up his gang, so that peace can return to the city.

criticism

The film is an "average spaghetti western, the only thing worth mentioning is the camera work and some comedic interludes," summarized the lexicon of international films . Segnalazioni Cinematografiche considered the work to be “a mediocre spaghetti western who comes across strangely lacking in ideas and without any narrative ideas of interest.” Christian Keßler sums up: “The only thing worthy of praise can be said about the film is that it is pretty rare. "

Remarks

The Italian box office brought in a far below average 98 million lire .
