Synopsis
A small town in the West is the scene of a massacre carried out by the gang of El Pardo, a bloodthirsty brute assisted by his deputy, El Niño, a sadist who loves blood and recites Shakespeare in his spare time, occasionally sharing his leader's bed. To exterminate this gang, which is hampering local commerce, the survivors call on a taciturn gunslinger dressed in black, El Marcado, former lover of the owner of the local brothel.
