Story

Dragged behind a horse, the Stranger arrives in a ghost town where he is hired by a witch to escort a princess to Spain. A Spain which seems to be a rather strange place, where he lands in the middle of a fight between barbarians and knights. To protect the princess he has to get pretty mean again.

Comment

This was somehow supposed to be the 4th entry in Tony Anthony's Stranger series, and should have become the starting point for several films which put the Stranger character in different settings and genres. Unfortunately Get Mean is as idiotic and silly as the story sounds and the Blindman team swapped narrative sovereignty for helplessness.
