Also known as

Synopsis

After the war of secession, the aging Cordeen, who owns thousands of acres in Texas, rules his numerous and quarrelsome sons with an iron hand. He sends them out to deal with the threat of the representatives from the North. However, not all the sons share their father's unlimited hatred for the Northerners and they find it increasingly difficult to obey his despotic commands. To add to the family's unrest, a prodigal son decides to return to the fold, provoking the youngest son to down tools and leave with him.

-Albert Band produced two westerns about a southern patriarch and his sons getting into conflict with themselves shortly after the Civil War. If the unbalanced "The Hellbenders" (directed by Sergio Corbuccci a year later) is the slightly better film, "The Tramplers" is the more self contained, because Band's naive directing is in line with the naivety of the screenplay which tells a potentially complex story in a simplistic manner.
