Bank heists, double-crosses, and vengeance fuel this Spanish-Italian Spaghetti Western showdown.
WATCH OUT GRINGO! SABATA WILL RETURN
An army officer, after killing his own men, steals a chest with a hundred thousand dollars in gold.
Proof that in the Spaghetti West, even the church can't escape a good double-cross.
With betrayals, a chest of gold, and gunmen on the hunt, this Eurowestern doesn't skimp on double-crosses or sunbaked style. George Martin and Fernando Sancho face off as treachery shuffles the deck, while the Tucson-adjacent setting gives the usual Spaghetti grit a desert tang.
