Black Jack Murphy (Robert Woods) is the brains in an outfit of outlaws who rob the bank at Tusca City.

Wily Jack manages to outfox them at first and gets away with the cash but they soon catch up with him again and not only make off with the money but leave him crippled and carrying multiple causes for wanting revenge. This need for amends possesses Jack with an all consuming passion and he sets out to get even with each of his unfaithful former compadres but has his particular sights set on Indian Joe (Mimmo Palmara) and Sanchez (Rik Battaglia) who abused and killed his beloved sister.

===Comment===
Bleak and violent revenge western with a hero who is driven halfway mad by his thirst for vengeance, and becomes thereby as bad as the men he is out to kill. Doubtless by far Baldanello's best SW, who nevertheless isn't a good enough director to be able to realise the full potential of the story (Garrone's [[Django il bastardo|Django the Bastard]] is a similar case). Still it is, if not a great masterpiece, what we like to call a minor classic.

Comment

Bleak and violent revenge western with a hero who is driven halfway mad by his thirst for vengeance, and becomes thereby as bad as the men he is out to kill. Doubtless by far Baldanello's best SW, who nevertheless isn't a good enough director to be able to realise the full potential of the story (Garrone's Django the Bastard is a similar case). Still it is, if not a great masterpiece, what we like to call a minor classic.
