SEVEN DEVILS ON HORSEBACK 1975 (TUBI)

Boy are there a lot of negative things said about this movie.

The plot is pretty straight forward. A man named Jeff McNeal (Dino Strano) has a sister who is raped and killed by the Cooper gang, led by Gordon Mitchell in a great, but small role as the gang leader.

McNeal discovers who did the killing and follows the gang to a small western town called Stanton. McNeal has been there before and his girlfriend, Rosie (Femi Benussi) wishes he would just settle down and take her out of the bar where she works as a sloon dancer.

There are plenty of fistfights and gunfights and the film moves along well, and for the most part I liked it. I guess I am partial because I think Femi Benussi was one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen in any movie and I would watch her in anything.

It was great to see Gordon Mitchell in this film. He has a certain style I just love in these spaghetti westerns and his peplum films as well. While there is nothing in the film that really stands out above the others in this genre, I sillt like it and would recommend it to any Italian westerns fan.

The rest of the cast includes Mario Brege, Guiseppe Mattei, Mirella Rossi, Rik Battaglia and Luigi Antonio Guerra.
