Lee Van Cleef rides into town and befriends the local stableboy.
The plot nominally revolves around Lee Van Cleef collecting on an old debt, with the help of the stableboy, Scott, as his protege.
There's plenty of excellent killing over the course of 90 minutes.
Excellent chemistry between Van Cleef and Scott. Lots of crooked townspeople. A rousing musical score. And an excellent final showdown.
But the coolest part of the movie has gotta be the duel between Van Cleef and some hired killer. It's like a throwback to medieval times and I'm almost certain there's nothing like it in western movies.
