(1970) Shango/ Shango, la pistola infallibile
DUBBED
SPAGHETTI WESTERN
Co-written and directed by Edoardo Mulargia where we see a man locked up in a bamboo-like cage hung onto a tree branch, and at first viewers are oblivious who he is but at the same time suspect that he may be the star of the movie. In this movie bloodthirsty bandits led by Martinez are coinciding with the confederacy led by Major Droster. And the major of the confederate army, Droster shoots and kills the telegrapher to prevent Martinez from knowing that the civil war is over. The major attempts to pin the murder to the captive man in locked the bird cage. As a matter of fact, he first kills the guardsman before he shoots the rope to free him leaving an empty holster for him to pick up, to make it appear he was the one who shot the telegrapher. And for some strange circumstances, a father Fernandez (Attilio Dottesio) and his son, Pedrito (Giusva Fioravanti) managed to save him who was locked in a cage for six weeks and once he regained his memory, he finally revealed to them he is a ranger, Shango played by Anthony Steffen.
When you like watch a movie like this, one would expect it to be as good or somewhat to be as unique as the movie the makers are attempting to capitalize on which is "A Fistful of Dollars", and then it's like by the time you see it, that it would not offer anything new to the genre which even the gunfights are too over the top and unconvincing. And what is more asinine is the fact that the hero in question, killed all but one despite the villagers/ peasants themselves are also armed. This is yet another unimpressed movie made on a whim.
