Synopsis

After his parents are killed by the men of landowner John Barrett, Ramon, is wounded while trying to get revenge. By chance, his life is saved by Rezza, an old disillusioned killer. While Rezza nurses Ramon's wounds, the two men become sort of friends. Rezza teaches Ramon the art of shooting and surviving and also the philosophy of the loneliness a killer has to bear. When the talented Ramon becomes a real threat to Barrett, the landowner hires Rezza to kill Ramon.

Comment

Excellent and intelligent variation of the teacher and pupil story, with a good score by Roberto Pregadio. Anthony Ghidra gives a charismatic performance as the old killer, while George Eastman is surprisingly good as a Mexican of unusual height. The film is mostly flawlessly directed by the talented Guiseppe Vari, whose best genre contribution this is. // by Stanton
