content

Sheriff Django and his brother Jim search for Cisco Delgado, who killed their father, in Mexico. You come to a country marked by misery and lawlessness, trembling at the misdeeds of the middlemen of Delgado. Rebellion fails because of the unsuitability of the means and the number of brave people. When Django and Jim are finally invited to his property by Delgado, Django asks him to face a court. Delgado then claims to be Jim's father and holds a feast in honor of the brothers. Then he has Django escorted to the state border. Several workers and a lawyer who wants to take action against Delgado free Django and turn against the despot. Under Django's leadership, Pedro's men who fight for Delgado are defeated. In the finale, Jim is shot dead by a Delgado man while trying to rescue him. Delgado did not survive the exchange of fire that followed. Django returns to Texas alone.

Reviews

The Catholic film service gave a succinct verdict: “Brutal European Westerns.” ( Lexicon of International Films ).

“Extremely well designed and executed; Nero delivers a harsh and effective presentation; Abril's music fits in perfectly with the dark mood of the film. "

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

"This film does not match the original with the hard flow of the plot and the ingenuity of the story."

- Bert Markus, in: Filmecho / Filmwoche 19, 1967

"To be rejected because of the lack of any morality and because of the skilful and long-lasting slaughter, which here is an end in itself."

- Protestant film observer , review No. 73/1967, p. 102
