The dubbing almost kills this but the plot about treachery and revenge almost saves it. It's kind of a tossup. Plus Henry Silva plays a leader of an army of thugs working for a sleazy landowner who has a beautiful sister, and Dan Duryea cuts the skin with the tattoo on it off the arm of protagonist Thomas Hunter to show to Nando Gazzolo as the corrupt landowner as proof his only real threat is dead. Pretty good action, saloon scenes, and a cool dance scene.
