Trivia

When Johnny Kane first meets Jake in the bar he says to Jake: "I hear you're real fast" to which Jake responds: "I'm just a sporting man." This is the same thing Johnny Ringo says to Doc Holiday in the film Tombstone and Doc gives a similar response. A very obvious homage the now classic western.

Goofs

Reference is made to the building of the railroad, making the setting in the mid-1800's, yet the saloon music playing in the background near the end of the movie is Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag," which was published in 1899.

Quotes

User Reviews

Spaghetti Western

I liked it. Definitely reminds one of the 60's classics. The music reinforces this. The acting is fine and I actually liked the slightly over the top costumes. The cinematography is excellent.

My only complaint is that the movie is a little schizoid. It started so spoofy I was sure where it was headed. It settles into the classic spaghetti western with choreographed shoot outs and music.
