Inferior Pasta Western shot in Italy with silly and ridiculous characters who mercelessly seek for robbing a wealthy and bizarre character . Being a plain demonstration of the confrontation among main roles who hold a large number of betrayal , antics , crosses and double-crosses among them. Ordinary performances without very recognizable top-notch stars . Stars Jonathan Duke (Gordon Mitchell) and his buddy conjurer Carter (Stevio Rosi) acting as petty crooks who move from town to town to make a living by cheating and selling an alleged miracle water . After several unsuccessful fraud attempts , the duo once again fell on their noses with their everyday frauds , the two cheaters move towards Trinità . A small community in which Eldorado subjugates the inhabitants who deal him like a God and he has a considerable and swindled fortune through his tyranny . Of course , Duke and conjuror Carter are eager to take possession of these riches from Eldorado (Craig Hill) . For this purpose , they need the help of Eldorado's niece Juanita (Daniela Giordano) , who supports to smuggle Carter disguised as a magician into Eldorado's domicile .
A deservedly obscure Spaghetti , one of the subsequents from the ¨Golden Age¨ and arguably in comical style grouped as Ravioli Western , being marked by a fun and entertaining style with no minimum aspiration , following the ¨Faglioli¨ sub-genre wake , whose main representation was Terence Hill , Bud Spencer 's ¨Trinity is my name¨ and its sequel Enzo Barboni's ¨Trinity Is Still My Name¨. The already modest story degenerates into mayhem , confusion and embarrassing events , which also makes accessibility much more difficult . Picture quality is really ridiculous , with plenty of hilarious situations , plot twists , slapdash , slapstick, crosses and double-crosses. This silly Ravioli Western results to be undemanding flick , packing misinterpretation , thrills , shootouts , noisy action , mud struggles , humor with tongue-in-cheek and disconcerting riding pursuits . A spoof Spaghetti Western with countless anti-jokes , as many saloon brawls as possible are provoked , starring a pair of crooks : con man Jonathan Duke and his partner Sebastian Carter teaming up with Ringo and his gang to rob the Mexican general Eldorado which draw their ambitions from similar Spencer/Hill films , that were becoming increasingly popular at the time . By the way , the brawls were mainly photographed in half-shots and seem very hectic , so that on the one hand I have doubts whether the responsible director who gave the chaotic beating instructions or he just let them do it . On the other hand, the aforementioned hustle and bustle can of course be explained by the fact that those responsible reduced the usual 24 frames per second to 20 images and therefore triggered the vehement turbulence . Stars three peculiar protagonists who interpreted a lot of Westerns , such as : Stelvio Rosi as Stan Cooper playing the rogue prestigitator , as he performed : ¨More Dollars for the McGregor¨, ¨You're Jinxed, Friend, You've Met Sacremento¨, ¨The Great Treasure Hunt¨ ; while Gordon Mitchell was habitual in Peplum and Pasta genre along the 60's and 70's and whose offerings were further down the credits list in the "spaghetti western" category , staying true to the country that made him a star , such as ¨Three bullets for Ringo¨ (1966), ¨Uccidi o muori¨ (1966) (Kill or Be Killed), ¨È mezzanotte... butta giù il cadavere¨ (1966), ¨Nato per uccidere¨ (1967), ¨Rita in the West¨ (1967), ¨Bersaglio mobile¨ (1967), ¨John, il bastardo¨ (1967) , ¨Django and Sartana¨ (1970), ¨Inginocchiati straniero... I cadaveri non fanno ombra!¨ (1970), ¨Se t'incontro t'ammazzo¨ (1971), ¨Nevada Kid¨ (1971), ¨Giù le mani... carogna!¨ (Django Story) , among others ; and specially Craig Hill as the interval clown Eldorado , a great astonishment of a role , he began acting in thrillers , later moving onto the Western genre , where he found his niche . As Craig Hill played a lot of Spaghetti , his first Western was ¨Hands of a Gunfighter" or ¨Ocaso De Un Pistolero¨ , he went on playing : "Seven Pistols for a Massacre" , "Rick and John¨ , ¨Conquerors of the West¨ , ¨Bounty hunter¨ , "I Want Him Dead" , "Fifteen Scaffolds for the Killer" , "Three Crosses of Death" , ¨Bury Them Deep¨, "I want him dead¨, and ¨The Crows Will Dig Your Grave" .
In addition , an effortless and catchy composition by Chiaramello , reminiscent of the soundtrack tone from Guido and Maurizio de Angelis alias Oliver Onions . The credits name Dick Spitfire as director , but the extent to which he contributed to the staging responsibility can only be speculated and behind this name hides who produced some Demofilo Fidani films , but I think Joe D'Amato was definitely behind the camera. Joe used his real name for screenplay and cinematography roles, but worked under many aliases .This artisan was a prolific cameraman/writer/producer/director who made all kinds of genres . His first directing work was this 1972's low-budget Scansati... a Trinità arriva Eldorado (1972), co-directed by Diego Spataro, under the pseudonym Dick Spitfire , but it was a commercial failure . As he directed hardcore , soft-core, erotic films starring Laura Gemser, such as : Emmanuel and francois (1975), Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals (1977), Emanuelle in América (1977), Emanuelle and the White Slave Trade (1978), Erotic Nights of the Living dead , L'alcova (1985) . Gialli and Terror movies : Gomia , Hitcher in the dark , Death Smiles on a Murderer , Buio Omega. Spaghetti Western : Scansati... a Trinità arriva Eldorado , Giubbe rosse . Scifi and Sword-witchery : Ator , Ator l'invincibile, Ator 3 , 2020 Texas Rangers , Bronx Endgame, and many others . Rating 3.5/10 . This is a shaken cocktail with no interest , if you are still willing to face the film, you should be prepared in advance for an uncoordinated as well as extremely tormenting and exhausting flick with oulandish and embarring happenings.
