During the mexican war of independence Mexicans and Austrians try
to find a little aztec statue: Who returns it to the Pueblo Indians, will be supported by their 10,000 warriors. The mysterious
Halleluja (Jorge Hill = George Hilton) works for both sides - against appropriate payment. Furthermore the couple Fleurette
(Agata Flori) and Archie (Lincoln Tate), two imposters, search the statue, in whose belly a pouch with diamonds is deposited.
The Gunslinger says:
Comedy-Western, made by routinier Giuliano Carnimeo ("Antony
Ascott") in 1972, which sometimes even is funny. It's the second time the Carnimeo-character of Halleluja appears on the screen
and again this comedy is produced straighter and more atmospheric as many of those serious-meant films of the category.
The score of Stelvio Cipriani is ok. In the main role the established Uruguayer Jorge Hill again is "Mr. Charming".
Since the end of the 60's the number of produced Comedy-Western
increased rapidly, and soon the bell rang the last Halleluja for the Spaghetti Western.
Rating: $$ - $$$
Bodycount: 25 Gringos
Explicit Brutalities:
While a group of Austrians piddle together, Halleluja puts them
out of action with only one whip blow on their "jewelry": Outch!
Specialties:
Halleluja uses his gun as a rocket launcher and partly works with
muffler. Besides he is a goal-safe gulf player. A backpipe filled with pepper serves not only for acoustic, but also for "chemical"
warfare.
