action

Rudy Wallace returns after a few years to his father's ranch, which he finds completely destroyed. The entire area of Dallas is under the rule of the wealthy Morrison, who wants to get rid of the pesky farmers of the area with the help of the violent Mark and is also responsible for the death of Wallace's father. After trying in vain to get other residents to act against Wallace, Rudy goes to work himself, but is hindered in fulfilling his revenge by Sheriff Raf, who is after him because of a brawl. Raf gets to know Rudy's character and eventually helps him complete his revenge.

criticism

The lexicon of international films was briefly summarized : "Eurowestern between brutality and idyll." Christian Keßler formulates a little more cynically : "Another film where you don't make too big a mistake if you rather read a good book instead"; next to it he sees an “old-fashioned revenge story” with “dusty lines of dialogue”.

Remarks

The song Canto del cow-boy is interpreted by Bruno D'Angelo . The gross profit in Italy was 100 million lire .
