Content:

To the end of the civil war a Yankee officer ("Ty Hardin") returns home, but his house is destroyed, his family is murdered. Thus revenge is indicated, but approximately to whom? Two years later the murderers are unmasked as far as possible: From now on the local coffin industry is in demand, so that the coffin carpenter must adjust still another assistant. The ex officer establish himself in the little community as an undertaker, carmouflaged with a wig, a wrong beard and Hippie eyeglasses. Thus he can start to fill the ordered coffins with appropriate contents. But who was the leader of the killer gang, and what do the shifty Sheriff (Rossano Brazzi) and his Deputy (Gordon Mitchell) know?

The Gunslinger says:

Poor Western of Mario Gariazzo, which however unites successful some nice optical and acoustic ideas. Thus the film works for example with strongly distorted and intensified sounds, and a nightmare of the Sheriff wins a surrealistic, nearly psycedelic quality, owing to the pictures of Alvaro Lanzone. The actors, also "Ty Hardin" ; -), are passable. Ennio Morricone contributed the melancolic trumpet score.
