The Film
Accused of a hideous crime they did not commit, the members of two rivaling gangs, persecuted by a bloodthirsty lynch mob, take refuge in an abandoned fort, taking two hostages with them. The fort is surrounded by the sheriff and his mob, and the scaffolds of the title are erected in front of the entrance gate. Several people die in both camps during the siege. Finally a fire breaks out and men fleeing from the flames are shot by those waylaying outside the fort. But then the young man who organized the posse in the first place, discovers who was really responsible for the crimes.
Comments
This is a rather ambitious little movie that never really manages to live up to its potential. It is interesting, but it’s also marred by too many bounds and inconsistencies. Director Mallasomma, mainly known for romantic comedies, was 73 years of age when he made it, and had made only a handful of movies in the previous decades. Still some people think this is a little gem ... – Scherpschutter
- Un gran pequeño western – Julio Alberto, 800 Spaghetti westerns
