Quotes

Stengel: [Believing he's got Sabata beat] Before you die, you should know that those men with superior talents... and consequently with superior powers... always have one last card to play.
Sabata: You know, Stengel, I wouldn't bet a dollar on that last card.

Van Cleef Rules!
28 September 2003 | by (new york) – See all my reviews

I tried for a long time to get this film on a good dvd (a japanese boxed set that is now out of print). I love spaghetti westerns and this is one of the best after the Leone films. Very toungue in cheek but still fun and action packed. I can't believe this isn't readily available, not even on VHS. Lee van Cleef was excellent. I wish there were stars like him around today but it seems he's part of an era that is gone forever. Dig those Zoom shots!!
