The film is an -Italian-Spanish co-production by Transeuropa Film, Italian International Film, and Copercines. [1] It was mainly shot in Hoyo de Manzanares. [2]
A contemporary Corriere della Sera review praised the film, noting that "in the bleak landscape of Italian–Spanish co-productions [...] it warrants a place of distinction for its decent pacing and, especially in the second part, a handful of clever ideas." [3] Thomas Weisser described the film as "a good, action-oriented Spaghetti Western" with "a solid musical score". [4] According to Paolo Mereghetti, the film will entertain Spaghetti Western aficionados, but "does not exploit the potential of its script and falls back on a succession of killings, in a crescendo that borders on parody."
