A spaghetti western surprise with Anthony Quinn as a "priest" and Charles Bronson as a Mestizo malcontent.
The movie has a theme, a developed plot, some actors with charisma and an Ennio Morricone score. That's more than most movies give you, regardless of genre.
I was pleased to find that Spaghettiville isn't a one-horse (Eastwood/Leone) town.
8 out of 10.
