Like the Bandit... Like the Gringo... A bullet doesn't care who it kills!

Western

El Chuncho's bandits rob arms from a train, intending to sell the weapons to Elias' revolutionaries. They are helped by one of the passengers, Bill Tate, and allow him to join them, unware he is an assassin working for the Mexican government.

VIBE

A brutal, cynical, and operatic descent into the bloody chaos of revolution. Expect nihilistic violence, shifting allegiances, and a grim, unflinching look at the cost of war. This is spaghetti western at its most unforgiving.
