content
The Mexican revolutionary General Valiente and his men try to rob a bank in Two Arrows. Since the whole settlement is attending a wedding, that doesn't seem to be a problem. Even so, there are two witnesses: Loring Vanderbilt and Francis Parker, who are able to pursue the group and hunt the prey. Then they decide to keep the money themselves. Braddock sends Valiente to look for the hiding place of the two pistoleros. First, Valiente succeeds in capturing Vanderbilt, but Parker knocks him out again. It soon turns out that Parker is acting on behalf of the government, which is supposed to checkmate the man behind the revolutionaries. Braddock lets an old friend intervene with his part of the cavalry, but turns out to be the mastermind behind the attack. Parker can take out the criminal with the help of young Vanderbilt.
criticism
"Acceptable spaghetti westerns with comedic interludes and religious (trace) elements."
Remarks
Fernando Cerchio (also in the Spanish version of the film) and Wolfgang Schleif are also used as directors - by incorrectly assigning the pseudonym .
