Bounty hunter Arizona Colt and his buddy Double Whiskey roam the west. After a repulsed attack by other bounty hunters, he finds out that a bounty was offered for him for a stagecoach robbery that he had nothing to do with. Responsible for this is Keene, who has an old account with Arizona Colt. He also plans to find a rancher , with whose daughter Arizona Colt is connected, to ease his gold. Villagers capture and hang Arizona Colt. Then he, who has survived by a trick, goes on a revenge tour and deletes one after the other the members of Keene's gang and finally this himself.

criticism

"Stereotypical spaghetti westerns whose raw disposition is painstakingly concealed with a few jokes and parodic phrases."

- Lexicon of international film

"Mediocre attempt at a sequel, unfortunately far from the same as the original."

- Ulrich P. Bruckner: For a few more corpses.

“At the beginning the film is designed to be very humorous, but then it gets grimmer and grimmer until the corpses finally pile up. Not to believe that this should be a continuation. "

- Christian Keßler : Welcome to hell.

Others

• Only Roberto Camardiel and Rosalba Neri remained as actors from the first film.
• The film falls into the end of the serious and the beginning of the comedic spaghetti westerns and represents a hybrid of both.
• The song I guess I gonna get my gun , which is offered here by I Cantori Moderni , is a curiosity with a happy melody and grim lyrics.
