This is a true, pure, authentic fast and furious western, which would have never made it in movie theaters, it would have never made a gross, because audiences, silly audiences, crave for Hollywood like stories with the good defeating the evil ones and the always f...happy ending. This western is gritty, violent, disturbing and if you loved the likes of TOM HORN and HEAVEN'S GATE, if you love gloomy, downbeat stories, this one is for you. Definitely, entirely, literally. I am not sure it was inspired by an accurate real story but I know this kind of tragedies occured many many times during the old west era. There was no hero getting away in the sunset with his sweetheart. Leave it to the sissies.
