According to the assistant director Gianfranco Baldanello, the film was started by veteran director Mario Costa, which was replaced by Savona after one week because of his on set fights with leading actor Richard Harrison. [1] It was shot between Cinecittà and La Pedriza. [1]
Rewieving the film, Italian critic Davide Pulici described the film as "a solid film built on a traditional structure", but categorized it among the "borderline" spaghetti westerns, because of the giallo structure and mystery elements, the strangeness of various characters and situations, and the inventiveness of the death scenes, particularly that of Mirko Ellis.
