The bad dubbing adds to the ineptitude of this hard to watch Western, with its kung fu hero straining to be something different Some masochistic fans enjoy being insulted and this certainly achieves that effect, with Bruno Nicola's self parody of his classic scores with Morricone embarrassing poor and tinny.
Terence Hill was expert at combining parody with hommage in classics like "My Name Is Nobody", a style abandoned here. In fact, the end result is unfortunately most similar to those purely imitation American movies made by Italians in the Western genre in 1964 before Leone revolutionized the Western genre forever.
The racism theme is so heavy-handedly presented as to be more a vicarious celebration of racism rather than social criticism. And the gimmicky fight scenes are ridiculous with sound effects/dubbing of the worst kind.
As a completist I waited for over an hour to see Klaus Kinski's guestrole and wished I hadn't. His screen presence is always terrific but he basically stares his way through this crummy walk-through as a stock sadistic bad guy, shot in slow motion by ultrahack director Caiano, before a vain attempt to gross out the target kiddie audience.
Utter crap.
