Savage Guns Trailers

Sam is wounded by the Mash Flanigan gang who enters a saloon and kills everybody in sight including his brother. Walbash chases Flanigan to Golden City for revenge, leading to the obligatory showdown. One of the clever scenes is when gunfighters Gordon Mitchell, Lincoln Tate and Peter Martell interview for jobs and are introduced with their acting names Mitchell, Tate and Martell.

A cruel and ruthless bandit kills a tavern owner who had ratted him out to the authorities. Sam Wallbush witnesses the murder, as well as the murder of his brother who happens to get in the way of the bandit. Sam swears revenge and sets out for blood.Title changes to Savage Guns.This is a freaky poorly dubbed weird movie directed by a maniac.The story goes no where and you will pray you can get your 90 minutes back.The bar dance numbers are something to NOT see. Is that a guy or what?Absolutely horrible. It really is a train wreck directed by the Ed Wood of spaghetti westerns.

This particular spaghetti western which I obtained as part of 20 DVD package came to me under the title of Savage Guns which I will use in place of the original Italian name. It plays more like a modern gangster film than a western.The genesis of the storyline is that our hero Robert Woods was the only one who escaped a massacre in a saloon where the villain Dino Strano and his gang shot a bartender who had informed on them to the authorities. But instead of maybe waiting for him outside and just stabbing or shooting him, no these guys go into his saloon and shoot the place up and kill everyone there. Or so they think. The rest of the film is Woods looking to even things with Strano.In fact Strano and/or his gang do this all the time. And they must have six guns that hold about 20 rounds each the way they kept firing. Reminded me of an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies where when the Clampetts by a movie studio they remark about how all the cowboys have those Hollywood guns that never seem to need reloading. Jed wished his hunting rifle operated that way. It also reminded me of one of my favorite films Casino where the character of Tony Dogs shoots up a mob protected place for kicks as well as robbery and massacres everyone there. Joe Pesci takes vengeance on him quicker than Woods did with Strano.For mindless gratuitous violence if that's your thing, you can't go wrong with Savage Guns.

Savage Guns (video title) is a dirt cheap, bottom of the barrel spaghetti western in which the survivor of a massacre hunts the bandits who killed his brother and left him for dead, catching up with them in a town controlled by their crooked boss.Despite plenty of violence, this manages to be both dull and colorless with bad characterizations and almost no imagination or humor.Lead actor Robert Woods lives up to his name with a wooden and uncharismatic performance that fails to generate any warmth or sympathy whatsoever. In other words, the viewer never really roots for him despite the fact that he's the protagonist.The worst scene (in my opinion) is the annoying dance hall scene where a woman sings in a heavy and terribly unsexy German accent. It was the worst scene in Blazing Saddles and the worst one here!

This is the first film I've watched from the Italian Ed Wood, Demofilo Fidani aka Miles Deem. The above title was superfluously added later on since there exists another similarly titled 1961 movie starring Richard Basehart which was Hammer Films' Michael Carreras' one and only stab at the Western; the genuine Italian title was originally translated as HIS NAME WAS SAM WALBASH, BUT THEY CALLED HIM AMEN…although it was actually WALLACH in the Italian variant which, of course, implies a tribute of sorts to Hollywood actor Eli! While certainly not unwatchably bad, instances of clumsiness and ineptitude abound so that I was often cracking up into howls of laughter: a horrid number by a would-be irresistible French chanteuse; a totally irrelevant bar-room brawl; actors doing somersaults when being shot; an aged villager doing an impromptu dance routine; ineffective use (indeed abuse) of slow-motion; and, easily the most preposterous, seeing Gordon Mitchell and Lincoln Tate play two gunfighters (sporting the actors' own names!) hired by the villain to kill off the title character and then never having them appear in the rest of the film at all!! Lead actor Robert Woods is just that even down to ineffectively whispering the Amens over the bodies of his victims. Supporting actress Simonella Vitelli (actually, the director's own daughter!) as the villain's broad is quite a looker but, unfortunately, she doesn't get to do much in the film – despite having a change of heart towards the end. The main musical theme is actually pretty good but, again, the title song is, in itself, quite lousy.
