Description
Cast: Tomas Milian, Orson Welles, John Steiner
An English doctor (Steiner) saves Mexican revolutionary leader Tepepa (Spaghetti Western staple Milian) from a firing squad in order to exact personal revenge. Soon, the two men must join forces when they are both pursued by the ruthless Colonel Carrosco (Welles). Petroni, director of Death Rides a Horse, turns this tale of third world revolution into an effective Vietnam War allegory.
