21 April 2017
Johnny or Django (as Giacomo Rossi-Stuart or Jack Stuart ) faces off the banker Burton (Aldo Sambrell) , who attempts to acquire with the help of the weird outlaw Lúpe Martínez (George Wang) all the gold mines of the poor owners . Martinez has posters along the little town captioning : ¨Lupe Martínez , Wanted for murder , 2.000 dollars reward , dead or alive¨. Meanwhile , Johnny meets in the nearer environment an old man , Thomas Livingstone , who has a valuable mine . Subsequently , Livingstone is shot by Burton's hoodlums . Johnny is accused for killing and the crowd attempts to lynch him .

This potboiler low budget Spaghetti/paella Western co-produced by Italy and Spain . This is a boring Spaghetti with a non-sense script by Victor Andrés Catena that displays a few and poor scenarios embarrassingly photographed by Francisco Sánchez , shootouts , brawls , but results to be slow and tiring . A short-budget production who was made in Spain , Almeria , similarly other multiple Westerns , frequently filmed back-to-back using several of the same cast and crew members . Stars Giacomo Rossi Stuart or Jack Stuart who takes on the unlawful ways carried out by his implacable enemies . Stuart was an actor who happily capitalized on whatever cinematic trend was hot at the moment , as he starred all kind of genres, specially terror : Kill Baby Kill , The Last man on Earth , The night Evelyn came out of the grave ; Wartime : Nest of hornets , Last day of War , Churchill's Leopards , Che Guevara ; Eurospy : Agent Z-55, mission Coleman , Ring around the world , Perry Grant ; and Spaghetti/Chorizo Western , such as : 5 Army men , Zorro , The Fox , Deguello , You're Jinxed, Friend You've Met Sacramento , Amigo Stay Away and Shangai Joe . And as male lead opposite shows up Aldo Sambrell who performed lots of Spaghetti/Tortilla Westerns , usually as secondary actor , being his most important intervention in Navajo Joe versus Burt Reynolds . Co-starred the gorgeous Diana Lorys , this Spanish dynamo of fiery Latin passion played 17 European western , originally trained in ballet , dance , Flamenco as demonstrates in this "Kill Django... Kill First" , she had supporting roles in Spaghetti/Paella Westerns as Chino , Bad Man's river and California . She also appeared in two USA/Chorizo Western : The Texican and Villa rides . She was also leading lady in several lesser known Tortilla/Pasta Westerns and terror movies as The awful Doctor Orloff , Blue eyes of broken doll , Nightmares come at night and Malenka . Other secondaries here appearing and regulars in Spaghetti are the followings : Mario Novelli , Pietro Tordi or Peter White , and Lorenzo Robledo who played Leone Westerns and others in very secondary participation and cameos . Furthermore , the beautiful Krista Nell who brought her penetrating , steely gaze to some Spaghetti and horror movies until her early death at 29 years old .

This lowbrow motion picture Uccidi Django... Uccidi per Primo!!!" or "Kill Django... Kill First was lousily filmed by Sergio Garrone and with lots of zooms . Sergio's direction is badly crafted , here he is more inclined toward violence and packs little action , but especially this thrilling Western contains moving shoot'em ups and some gloomy scenes into a cave where lives a disturbing Chinese bandit . Sergio serves as a classic example of a journeyman Italian exploitation filmmaker and freelance screenwriter . As Garrone penned a great number of screenplays and lack-luster films , working from the 60s in all kind of genres and B movies . He directed this embarrassing western , genre in which he would not only excel but one where he would spent much of the rest of his career . Sergio went on to helm several other spaghetti Westerns , many of them Spanish co-productions, that include Tre Croci Per Non Morire (1968) , Quel Maledetto Giorno Della Resa Dei Conti (1971) , Deguello (1966) also starred by Jack Stuart , Huracan Sobre Mexico (1967) and his greatest notoriety was the peculiar outing : Django il Bastardo (1969) . In 1974 Garrone directed the horror features as Le Amanti del Mostro (1974) and La mano Che Nutre la Morte (1974) , both of which performed Klaus Kinski . He made and wrote for everything from inferior sex comedies as La Clinica Dell'Amore (1976) , El Periscopio (1979) by José Ramón Larraz , to even Giallo , mystery thrillers such as : L'ultimo harem , La Pagella , Blonde Köder Kür den Mörder (1969) or Killer's Gold . Later on , Sergio Garrone directed nasty Naziexploitation or Porno-Nazis as Lager SSadis Kastrat Kommandantur (1976) and SS Lager 5: L'inferno Delle Donne (1977). And after writing the violent/erotic WIPs (women-in-prison) : Hell Behind the Bars (1984) and Detenute Violente (1984).
