Spagwest hampered by budgetary constraints

NO KILLING WITHOUT DOLLARS is a standard spaghetti western from director-for-hire Riccardo Freda, a far cry from his excellent Gothic horror movies such THE TERROR OF DR. HICHCOCK as made earlier in the decade. In comparison, this film has an entirely routine plot, one which is constrained by a low budget which means that all of the action is confined within a single small town set.

Mark Damon - no stranger to Italian cinema - plays a vengeful gunslinger who hides under an assumed identity in order to track down the killer of his father. Violence ensues, but there's notably less action than usual and a greater emphasis on the complexities of the plotting. The supporting cast do their bit but are typically hindered by the average dub job and choppy qualities of the existing print that gives this an amateurish feel on occasion.
