-Filmed in Almeria, this ''ersatz'' ''spaghetti western'' was produced by the great Andre De Toth and stars Lee van Cleef in a part more appropriate to Eli Wallach. El Condor is noisy and violent, with several scenes offering female nudity that is far more valuable than all the gold of the fortress.  – [[User:Scherpschutter|Scherpschutter]]
