Spaghetti Western with Steve REEVES
27 December 2023
Four years after his appearance as Sandokan, Steve REEVES (1926-2000) returned in front of the cameras again, this time in a spaghetti western. Unfortunately, this was REEVES' last screen appearance, even though the film was really good.

Together with his brother Roy (Giovanni Ivan SCRATUGLIA), Mike Sturgis (Steve REEVES) runs a horse breeding business in Arizona. When they are attacked, they want revenge on the perpetrators. In doing so, they get involved in an even worse matter, in which the railway boss (Wayde PRESTON) and the sheriff (Mimmo PALMARA) also have their fingers in the game. Mike and his little brother end up in the notorious Yuma State Prison, which only the hunky Mike survives. Now the day of revenge has finally come...

Decent spaghetti western by Camillo BAZZONI, who knows how to tell his story in a straightforward manner. Mimmo PALMARA and Steve REEVES had known each other since the legendary Hercules films from 1958 and 1959, which marked the beginning of the rise and financial success (especially in N-America) of the Roman Cinecitta.
