Synopsis

In this story, Django (Franco Nero) has spent a decade in a monastery, trying to live down his violent past as a gunman.

Enraged and determined to bring the abductors to justice, Django digs up his old Gatling gun (literally - he had buried it in a graveyard, under a headstone with the name "Django" on it) and once again begins cutting a swath through the countryside as he seeks to free his daughter.

-==Comment==
+===<i class="fa fa-map fa-xs"></i> Filming locations===
-No coincidence, that this film (the only really official [[Django]] sequel) came out after the two Rambo films. Django Strikes Again is quite a lousy action film, that is neither a real spaghetti western, nor a real Rambo movie. Worth watching only just so you can say "you've seen it". --[[User:Admin|Sebastian]] 12:39, 30 Jul 2005 (CEST)
